Building notes
- Since v0.4.7 Seabass for Ubuntu Touch is built with patched Cordova from this repo
- Since v0.4.8 Seabass for Ubuntu Touch is built with patched Cordova plugins:
- It seems that latest Ubuntu Xenial Desktop versions are not supported by Cordova-cli and so original 16.04 image (OR 17.04) is required to build Seabass (at least 16.04.2 is not supported due to problems with click package)
Updated automatic build script is available at seabass-build repo. Manual build instructions are also available.
Seabass is developed by Mikhael Milikhin, Open Store version is maintained by Brian Douglass.
