If you would like to use Ubuntu Linux distribution in your AppVMs, you can build and
install one of the available Ubuntu templates. These templates are currently not

available in the repository - it will interactively ask you which templates you
want to build.
The build for Ubuntu 14.04 LTS (Trusty) should be straightforward.

The build for Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (Xenial) is straightforward. Note that packages perl-Digest-MD5 and perl-Digest-SHA are required for the build to succeed.
