Yes - all reasonably accurate. But then there's the SDK control centre:
* Open Control Centre in SDK (the SailfishOS button on the left - don't ask why) * Go to "Targets" * Click manage by SailfishOS-armv7hl or SailfishOS-i486-x86 * type "contact" into the search box (no <return>) * hmm, too many, add a space and "qt5" to see the 'as you type' search (no, really, pay attention, it took me ages to write that) * now click install on the one you want or note it down to add to the BuildRequires David PS there's a bug where some packages appear twice. That's because it shows the src package too. I'm sure it'll get fixed one day :) PPS Terminoloy: the VM is the Build Engine. The SB2 things are called 'Targets' as they allow the BE to build for a variety of targets. Note also the Toolchains for a variety of architectures.
