Snap is a cross-distribution packaging format for Linux. See https://snapcraft.io for more information.

How to build

Just type

SNAPCRAFT_BUILD_ENVIRONMENT_CPU=6 SNAPCRAFT_BUILD_ENVIRONMENT_MEMORY=8G snapcraft

from the root directory of the MeshLab repository. This snap has been successfully built in Ubuntu 17.04; Ubuntu 16.10 will not work because MeshLab needs Qt 5.7, which is not available there. It should be possible to build MeshLab as a snap in older Ubuntu distributions by using the qt57 part, but no efforts have been taken in this direction since anyway the generated snap package will work on older distributions too.

How to test the snap

The generated snap can be installed by typing

snap install --dangerous ./meshlab*.snap

The --dangerous flag is needed because the snap has not been verified by the store.

How to upload the snap to the store

A thorough guide can be found at the snapcraft.io site.
