[SailfishDevel] QtContacts available

Sun Dec 22 19:53:51 UTC 2013

Hi Chris,

please help me with my confusion :)

My understanding was that the build engine is the VM located at port 
2222. I used zypper because I read this in the blog post.
I thought that it does not make a difference if I install it via SDK 
Control center, zypper or pkcon. Is this right ?

What do you mean with SDK VM ? The emulator ? I thought there are only 
two VMs ? What doe you mean with SB2 ?

There is much to learn for me. But with your hints I had a small success 
after my old Harmattan application started to breathe :).

Ciao
     Matze
