This weekend I tried to install ubuntu-sdk directly on my Nexus 4 in
order to directly build go-qml apps.  I ran out of space on the device.

Details are in the go-qml mailing list.
Pardon my ignorance, but can we make /dev/loop0 bigger?
>From what I understand /var/cache and the installed packages reside
within /dev/loop0.

/dev/mmcblk0p23 still has 9.7GBytes of free space.  Pardon my ignorance,
but why can't we install packages and cache here?

Cheers,
