OLD NOTES that should be handled in setup script...

Ubuntu 16.04 "Xenial Xerus" setup
Ubuntu 16.10 "Xenial Xerus" upgrade 
sudo visudo
  # MDM PUT THIS AT THE VERY END
  m ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL
cd .i3 && mv config config.backup && ln -s /home/m/development/config/common/home/m/.i3/config config # and press Mod+Shift+C to reload
cd .gconf/apps/gnome-terminal/profiles/Default && mv %gconf.xml %gconf.xml.backup && ln -s /home/m/development/config/common/home/m/.gconf/apps/gnome-terminal/profiles/Default/%gconf.xml %gconf.xml
# fix up fstab as/if needed
su -
cd /etc
mv fstab /home/m/config/etc/fstab
ln -s fstab /home/m/config/etc/fstab
subl /home/m/config/etc/fstab /home/m/development/config/melange/ubuntu/etc/fstab # and copy samba mounts
su -
cd /etc
diff /etc/hosts /home/m/config/etc/hosts (most important: make sure correct hostname is being used)
mv hosts /home/m/config/etc/hosts
ln -s hosts /home/m/config/etc/hosts
# keep going with all remaining symlinks.... until....



verify_ubuntu_config_symlinks # ALL THESE should now be SYMLINKS
# set up .bashrc - see another machine's as an example; use the common parts at top and bottom; make sure to update script path
