snap install broken ?

[andre]

Tried to install on ubuntu 16.10 (64bit)

sudo snap install cloudcompare
error: cannot install "cloudcompare": snap not found

snap find cloudcompare
The search "cloudcompare" returned 0 snaps

I don't think so, maybe it's your network or something else.
Can you try again?

fantastic, and very strange - it worked now.
I tried several times in row before posting - and installed using snap on laptop last week, just fine.

Thanks.

Nice,
I haven't made the annoucement but you can now acces to beta and nighly builds through snap channels. It worth it since CloudCompare is very stable, even in dev process.
you can read how to install these alternatives snaps on the download page http://www.danielgm.net/cc/release/
