        @lakotaubp the libertine GUI needs a lot of improvement but you can install packages now in a sort of weird way.

        If you search for a package, and you see it's available, you have to use "Enter package name or Debian file" and you can install it.

        BTW the "OK" button doesn't work, you need to press the enter key on the keyboard.

            @lakotaubp how are you trying via terminal exactly and what command are you using? It should work.

            I assume you've have read https://docs.ubports.com/en/latest/userguide/dailyuse/libertine.html but I want to link that documentation here for the benefit of those who come to this thread looking for an answer πŸ™‚

              @advocatux Yes tried that get a dpkg error to fix run dpkg --configure -a then it can't access dpkg.
              This is on Bq 5. When started Libertine gets as far as reading package lists then dpkg interrupted.
              Of to work now so will try later

              Edit tried with

              -p package name,
              -i container id -p package name
              And -p package name -i container id

              edit two
              still not working bq 5 dpkg interrupted
              nexus 5 same commands installed pkg

              Edit Three 05/07
              Have worked out the issue. Bearing in mind all of this is done trying out the new Libertine settings in 16.04 as is today. When creating the container from system settings Libertine, sometimes the container finishes the setup on its own then you have no problems. On others the setup hangs for hours with spinning circle and the container name showing on Libertine page. If you tap on the container name you can then use container settings to manage the container and update it. This stops the spinning wheel and all seems fine. until you try and install apps and get a dpkg error message.
              This is for info only and only refers to using your device and Libertine settings and terminal on it today as no doubt things will change.

                @advocatux Have got the container set up and apparently installed Firefox but nothing is showing in the scope on a M10 FDH with 16.04RC

                  @dave1152000 Hi, There is still a bit of work needed to get the scope working correctly, from what I've heard.

                      I had a play around,I think we are,trying to be ahead of the game, and should be patient and let the guys finish fixing the scope.

                        @marathon2422 yes I agree. Still it's nice to know how far things have come on, and what's improving on a daily basis. Big thanks to everyone involved in the progress towards 16.04 stable.

                          @killerbee You have to:

                          1-libertine-container-manager list-apps (with this you will see a list of the current installed apps
                          Then
                          2-ubuntu-app-launch packagename (for example, ubuntu-app-launch xenial_thunderbird_0.0)
                          3-after launching the app you can pin down in the launcher bar so you can access the app more straightforward

                              Cool starting "works" however results are not too enjoyable. Interested in errors?

                              Like Firefox crashes and Libreoffice has some issues with detecting correct mouse position / responsiveness...

                                    @advocatux nope with the "touch mouse". Its cumbersome but doable 😞 I have issues with connecting to external display.... I only get dark gray screen, no display on external monitor, but tablet "changes to mousepad"

                                    UPDATE: After I connected an external keyboard ONCE it now is able to switch on the external monitor. This allows me to use thunderbird on the tablet πŸ˜‰ HOOORAYYYY!

                                          I am running 16.04 (2018-W27) on a BQ M10 FHD. I installed it via the UBPorts Installer with the -wipe optsion. When I run:

                                          $ libertine-container-manager -i xenial
                                          

                                          I get:

                                          I briefly switched to the Development channel to see if the experience was different there. Unfortunately it is not.

                                              I will install libertine on the desktop and see if I get the same behavior. At the same time I will check if this issue has already been reported.
