Hi,

I'm a completely newbie to Ubuntu Touch, I am working on a Ubuntu 16.04 LTS desktop.
I want to try out UT (without buying and actual compatible device) with the

ubuntu-emulator

using the following command:

sudo ubuntu-emulator create somename

It says:

Get https://system-image.ubuntu.com/channels.json: dial tcp: lookup system-image.ubuntu.com on 127.0.1.1:53: no such host

because this site seems no longer exists. I found that https://system-image.ubports.com/channels.json exists and may for the same purpose, is there a way to tell ubuntu-emulator to use this uri instead of the original one?

I know it does not supported anymore, but thanks, if you have any useful tips.
