At least not using Ubuntu 16.04 64bit. Their setup wants to install conflicting packages.
In a previous try, i tried to "fix" the conflict by explicitly installing zlib1g-dev:386 and I didn't notice that it wanted to remove a ton of stuff - that almost destroyed my system and it took me an hour to manually repair the damage again.
Of course this is not u2f-zero project's fault, but I thought I give feedback in case other users run into the same issues.
My first try was with SimplicityStudio v4 and after I read in the issues tracker that v3 works better, I had quite similar issues with v3 (see log above).
