    Description

      Would you please raise a ticket for this as I don't have a subscription.

      Ubuntu 16.04_LTS (in VirtualBox VM on OSX host (El Capitan)).

      1. the wget link on this page is out of sync with the download link

      2. using a VM with an almost clean install of Ubuntu double-clicking on .deb won't work as the OS needs other packages.

      3. the install using sudo dpkg -i etc had many missing dependencies. I manually got the dependent packages, as far as I could see.

      4. Get following error when I try to run per website instructions:

      user@ubuntu:~$

      5. tried with sudo and compass UI comes up ok but hangs with message relating to "can't access home"

      BTW - I'm running compass on my Mac natively and it worked fine first time.
