Ubuntu touch on vince (Redmi 5 Plus)

[Kikon]

Hi,
Where can I get https://github.com/ubports-on-vince/ubports-ci files?
It was deleted recently from github.

Thanks.

Hi @kikon
This looks like a specific port.
So you should probably ask directly the porters.

But maybe what you're looking is the CI available on UBports' Gitlab

@applee Hi
What do you mean by specific port?
I just want to install Ubuntu touch on Redmi 5 Plus, I saw it is supported on https://devices.ubuntu-touch.io/

[messayisto]

https://devices.ubuntu-touch.io/device/vince/ is marked as "a booting device", status of developpment is set to inactive"
This means that if you really want to have it on your phone you better ask the porter for the files...

The port is less than 50% complete, and inactive.
If this is your only phone, I wouldn't do this.
If it's an extra phone just for fun, go ahead... if you can get the files somewhere. Good luck!

@kikon
Sorry I didn't understand your question. I thought you were looking for the CI (continuuous integration) files, not how to install Ubuntu Touch on your device.

So my advice is to follow @messayisto 's advice and contact the porters.
The port not being mature enough make it unavailable in the UBports installer.

I would recommend to choose a device supported by the installer so you can get a good experience of Ubuntu Touch.
Unless you're willing to work on the port of course

@kikon Now you can get it from https://github.com/ubports-on-vince/ubports-ci/releases.
The repository is back in the public domain.

@AppLee and @messayisto are correct given the status of the port. It is down to the porter (who do this in their own time) to maintain the port and get it ready so that it can go on the UBports installer. If the device is not on the installer then I am afraid only the porter can help you.
