Thanks, that helped! Uninstalled the Ubuntu deb, then installed this one
and now the sync works fine.
By the way, the list of dependencies in the README is rather over the top.
Few users are going to need the QT development environment, for instance.
I'll see if I can give you a list of the required packages once I redo the
install on another computer.
A future wishlist item: a way to set the font size in the Android client?
The default is a bit large for me, as my cards are sometimes 2-3 lines of
sentences rather than just single words.
Finally, since you collect statistics for research on memory, here's one
possible point of worry: I notice that I select "2" and "3" much more often
on the mobile client than I do on the desktop. Pressing the space bar ("4")
on the desktop is so easy that I often do that when I really should have
pressed "3"; and "1" is much easier to find on the keyboard than the other
numbers so I tend to select "1" when "2" would have been better. So I think
that perhaps the Android client gives you better results, but they won't be
directly comparable to desktop data without doing a frequency adjustment.
