With the recent move to GitHub it has taken us a little while to update the launchpad builders that maintain our PPAs. These are now ready for use.
miral-release ppa
The release PPA contains the release version of Mir for all supported Ubuntu Series. There are builds for the supported Ubuntu releases (16.04 LTS “Xenial”, 17.04 “Zesty” or 17.10 “Artful”)
For convenience, it also contains rebuilds of related projects for series where it makes sense. Specifically:
-
For 17.04 “Zesty”: qtmir and unity-system-compositor (which enables using unity8-desktop-session with the latest Mir)
-
For 16.04LTS “Xenial”: qtubuntu which is used on UbuntuCore
To use the PPA:
$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mir-team/release
$ sudo apt update
$ sudo apt install mir-demos qterminal
$ sudo apt install mir-graphics-drivers-desktop qtubuntu-desktop
Mir staging ppa
The staging PPA contains the latest development code of Mir for all supported Ubuntu Series. There are builds for the supported Ubuntu releases (16.04 LTS “Xenial”, 17.04 “Zesty” or 17.10 “Artful”)
For convenience, it also contains rebuilds of related projects for series where it makes sense. Specifically:
- For 17.04 “Zesty”: qtmir and unity-system-compositor (which enables using unity8-desktop-session with the latest Mir)
To use the PPA:
$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mir-team/staging
$ sudo apt update
$ sudo apt install mir-demos qterminal
$ sudo apt install mir-graphics-drivers-desktop qtubuntu-desktop
To remove the PPA:
$ sudo ppa-purge mir-team/staging
