Nice. So it is LXD for applications.. I am writing this, because there might be no other chance to reply. I failed to install xdg-app, because it is not available from Ubuntu, and Gnome wiki was 503 to read instructions. So DX check failed for me. ) > Additionally, the terminal support in Builder will show you the > file-system layout from *inside* the xdg-app (as opposed to your host > system).

So I need to pass SSH keys and setup everything to work from inside container? That seems like an overkill. Is it possible to just share current directory with container? > I just did this to test: > > wget https://people.gnome.org/~alexl/keys/gnome-sdk.gpg > xdg-app remote-add --user --gpg-import=gnome-sdk.gpg gnome > http://sdk.gnome.org/repo/ > xdg-app --user install gnome org.gnome.Sdk 3.20 > xdg-app --user remote-add --gpg-key=gnome-sdk.gpg gnome-apps > http://sdk.gnome.org/repo-apps/ > xdg-app --user install gnome-apps org.gnome.Builder stable > xdg-app run --branch=stable org.gnome.Builder > > I also noticed that the Xdg-App version of Builder is missing Jedi for > python auto-completion.
