Anyone here who tried installing Celestia in Ubuntu 15.10? Can you tell me about the installation?

i do not use ubuntu so...
but on Fedora,OpenSUSE , CentOS ,and Debian

the source builds just fine

grab it from svn and install qt4 and qt creator , libpng 12 ( it IS in the repos and can be installed along side libpng16 )

install cspice and run the celestia.pro in qt creator

autotools are NOT building it correctly on OpenSUSE 42.1 with gcc 4.8

this is in NEED of updating
