I would be developing for UP for a long time, if something like this would exist. I've already tried to install ubuntu-sdk on my system (I'm on kubuntu) but never succeeded. It takes a lot of time to install/deinstall/reinstall the sdk and is no fun at all. First time I tried, I was on kubuntu 16.04. I came as far as having a working IDE, but the emulator just hung. After the upgrade to 16.10 I am really stuck. ubuntu-sdk crashes on startup, and qtcreator is gone. So not only it is not working, it also messed up my system. But hey, I have a Ubuntu Phone, so life is great! Cheers, Hans-Peter PS: Where is the right place to ask for help fixing the sdk? -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-phone Post to : ubuntu-phone@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-phone More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
