Thank you for a clear, concise write up on installation. This is what terminal said:

How can I find out what errors were encountered? I opened up Ubuntu software center afterwards and it said 'errors were encountered, do you want to fix them?' I said yes and saw some files come and go in the tmp directory. But looking for 'razer' in the 'installed' items reveals nothing. Even when 'show technical items' is clicked at the bottom of software center.

I reran the dpg command, it installed without errors, and it works fine. Still would like to know where my ubuntu 15.10 stumbled so i could let you know.

Also, would like to be able to limit 'spectrum' to a specific gradient. Also would like to show profiles i made up in the tray dropdown.

I added profiles to the tray, but it's sitting in my copy of the repo as I haven't pushed yet. Been a bit busy, I'm hoping to initate a pull request some point this week with other frontend changes.

@stefangeorge if you ran apt-get install -f that would of solved your issues. Using dpkg doesn't download the dependencies that the package requires which apt would do.

So that error is technically more than acceptable / normal
