Cannot build on Ubuntu 16.04

I'm following all the steps in the docs, but building fails: https://cloud.mbed.com/docs/current/connecting/connecting.html

Hi @janjongboom can you verify that you have deployed mbed-cloud-client.lib?

@teetak01 How would I deploy this? mbed deploy? It's not in the instructions...

[teetak01]

Instructions suggest to use mbed import, which performs mbed deploy automatically.

Alternatively, if you clone the application via git clone, then you need to run mbed deploy seperately.

[janjongboom]

@teetak01 Interesting, I missed the mbed import part. but this is also pulling in mbed OS and all the dependencies like storage-selector. I don't like that.

[teetak01]

I do not see that as a real problem. Pure linux-application does not include those libs at all. This reference application supports both Linux and Mbed OS out-of-box so some compromise needs to be done. We really would not want to write yet-another tool to deploy components seperately for Linux. mbed-cli after all is platform agnostic in itself.

Closing this issue as resolved.
