Many thanks to Jared Sutton for providing a PPA for ubuntu vivid (KF5/plasma in my case) and just a heads up that... it works! :-)
I haven't logged into cockpit since using Archlinux over a year ago so it's great to able to continue to explore it.

Woohoo! :-)
I noticed that pretty much nothing works on Trusty. Even NetworkManager is slightly too old there. We could pretty easily support that version, but...
Does it make sense to improve Cockpit on Trusty?

IMHO no. If considering trusty then utopic also needs a working release and I would think that all effort should be focussed on the next upcoming release (15.04 vivid) that will have a default, or near default, systemd.
The next LTS is 14 months away and I would expect by then that cockpit would be working absolutely perfectly on a Ubuntu server and if Canonical do not include it out of the box then it would be the first package added to 95% of new installations.

Ok, very good!

Do you have or know of plans for end-to-end testing of Cockpit on Ubuntu, like we do for Fedora right now?
We should expand our tests to more than one OS, and we would be happy to run that on our CI machine, or help others to set this up somewhere else.
