        I see on the main page (well, the one right under it for the Nexus 5) that I can do a snap install of ubports-installer. It even provides the command to install this snap!

        My DNA must be incomplete, because it's not obvious to me what I'm supposed to do after that? There's still no ubports-installer command in my path. I do some searches and maybe "snap set" will do the trick? But no, it says the required argument <conf value> needs to be supplied when I try "snap set ubports-installer".

        So maybe somebody could flesh out how to use a snap install of the installer to actually do an install? If somebody tries to install after reading:

        https://ubports.com/page/ubuntu-nexus-5
        

        they might be stymied.

          You might need to restart your session (log out and back in) for the icon to appear.

            @UniSuperBox My machine with the USB cable was headless, thus the confusion. There needs to be a distinction between CLI and GUI install options, I guess. Thanks.
