I have a better idea...there will be a new LTS out in four months and all these problems will go away because it will have the right packages to install without ubuntugis.

Hi guys

My two cents on this one..(and on a slightly off track)

I have recently as an experiment decided to use the instructions in the QGIS INSTALL.md to do a debian package compile for Ubuntu 16.04 using the ubuntugis experimental ppa (before Angelos migrated the packages to Unstable). What a fun experience.... Learnt a lot.... (I used the Boundless QGIS fork of 2.18.14 to see if i can get the "install plugin from zip" working on Ubuntu.  I actually got it working and installed via local apt repository.

I would be more than willing to help out on this one, but need some guidance in certain areas, and I can only do this over weekends.   One question as a kick-off, If I want 2.18, do I just use stand git clone and then git checkout of 2.18 to get the latest version of 2.18? (In my experiment I just downloaded the 2.18 zip.

    None that are not already in the note on

    http://qgis.org/en/site/forusers/alldownloads.html#debian-ubuntu
    <http://qgis.org/en/site/forusers/alldownloads.html#debian-ubuntu>

    ie. wait for the next nightly after a ubuntugis update.

    qgis=1:2.18.14+git20171125+e541a38+24xenial-ubuntugis from
    ubuntugis-nightly-release depends on gdal-abi-2-2-2.
