Re: Is Ubuntu Phone able to run anything else than Qt/QML apps?

 

Sweet then we will just have to wait for this implementations to happen
then. Again I feel that XMIR would have to have some of the same libs that
are included with x11 for all the apps to work.  I mean you can not just
launch a app that needs a lib when the lib is not installed and or can not
be installed.  I guess that I could build xmir and test this theory out. I
will post my findings.
