No, as I wrote, raring is the last one available.
Unfortunately, ubuntugis has now trusty packages for qgis 2.2 and gdal, 
but running with GDAL 1.11.0

at the moment, it does not exist yet.

I used ubuntugis unstable, and got QGIS 2.2 working.

That works too, but the file is now named ECWJP2SDKSetup_5.1.1.bin

So the next actions are


> chmod +x ECWJP2SDKSetup_5.1.1.bin

these three lines should go in one.

Does it have to be x86, not x64?

unfortunately not. The script ends complaining about missing gdal-config.

At least I get no error starting QGIS.
