So the 16.04 LTS will not have a UI for package maintenance? Will there be an alternative to users who aren't shell-savvy?

I know that muon (libqapt2 actually) is not available in the current

have been doing some work on trying to get muon and libqapt to build, so far
with only partial success.

Hey Mitch, I don't see a reply to you about Muon. As far as I know,
Muon will not be on the ISO. What a query to ubottu in IRC shows me is
that it is in universe, version 4:5.4.3-0ubuntu1 (xenial).

Perhaps Rick Timmis can tell us more?

Hi

Muon was orphaned, Ovidiu-florin and I have said that we will take on
it's maintainence.
I have worked with Clive to get it packaged, and we have it building. It
crashes on checking for updates, and we're looking into that
There is another Carlos I believe who has done some work on Muon, and
has proposed rebuilding the UI in QML, but we'll have to see how that goes.

I hope to get it packaged and testing in the coming 2 weeks. I don't see
it making the release ISO in 16.04, but we'll try to get it updated in
the repo's and perhaps we can rebundle it in 16.10

Hope that helps
Rick
