As a follow up to #29, Incus have now also packaged their UI fork upstream, which could be reflected here.

Im not really a fan how zabbly/incus#7 is built. It's basically a patch suite on-top of lxd-ui which would make us a downstream of a downstream. Still will have a look at it when I find some time.

I see. Sounds rather quirky. Let me know if there's anything to discuss or test.

If you have an idea what should be done, also feel free to leave a comment here that describes the expected path forward. I could feel tempted trying out how the COPR build and packaging system works, and try to implement this in a fork.

For the time being you can use the lxd-ui package with incus.

In the incus service file. Add the environment variable INCUS_UI=/usr/share/lxd-ui/ui

The process to add your browser isn't automatic due to the underlying commands changing a bit. There a few breakage points. But it does provide an easy UI.
