[Qgis-user] ubuntugis-nightly: No providers for GRASS and SAGA in Processing?

[Patrick Dunford]

GRASS7 is listed as a provider in my 17.04 VM running master build 655f121.

Are you using the ubuntugis version of master, the suggestion was based 
on the known issue with ubuntugis libraries not being updated at the 
same time as a new release of 2.18 comes out. If anything this is 
probably even more of an issue with nightly builds of master.

The solution is simply based on being able (potentially) to eliminate 
the need to use the ubuntugis repository whatsoever. If you can then use 
the non-ubuntugis version of master.
