Ubports Unity8 on Ubuntu 16.04 update
google chorme seems to work fine on Xmir (it used to blink), KDE apps work quite good native (to run the app native add "X-Ubuntu-Touch=True" to the app .desktop file).

Popescu Sorin: +Christian Ohrfandl slowness in VM is already reported :P github.com - Pretty slow in a virtualbox · Issue #7 · ubports/unity8-desktop-install-tools

there are lots of bugs to be fixed, ubports unity8 x86 build is pretty new

Lucas Rocha: Very nice!

Roy Gardiner: +Popescu Sorin I am not a geek so I need a bit of hand-holding here. I am interested in trying Unity 8 in Ubuntu 16.04. How do I do that safely? On Youtube you said...."add "X-Ubuntu-Touch=True" to the app .desktop file. to install unity8 on ubuntu 16.04 see this script ".
I don't know where app .desktop is and what it does. Which "script" was being referred to?

Rodney: I don't think ubports is switching to snaps anytime soon. It doesn't really make sense to either, given how Canonical dropped Unity, and the work was never completed to properly support things, in snapd. Clicks themselves can work fine for a while, and moving to something else would be an incredibly large amount of work, especially if one wants to keep something like the Open Store going.

Cédric Bellegarde: And click support is needed by legacy devices

yay Kate runs native on Ubuntu Touch! (16.04) :D via +Marius Gripsgård

Lars Modig: +Popescu Sorin what do you mean with native? Dont you need libertine anymore on UT?
Maybe I should try to restart my bq & Meizu devices... Sounds interessting indead this ubports project...

Popescu Sorin: +Lars Modig native means it doesn't need Xmir to run. this is running on 16.04 devel and i think it was installed using apt install kate :D so it's running with mir or wayland backend, can't tell

Lars Modig: Cool and its UT. So i.e you can install everything that exist on ubuntu 16.04 on a ubuntu touch (ubports) phone or is it just desktop?

I've just noticed that I'm on the FOSDEM 2018 schedule talking about Mir. Anyone else going to be there?

(In the absence of any other communication I assume that means my talk was accepted!)
