How to open dlt viewer in linux

I have used dlt viewer gui using windows where I can able to set the ECU IP and connect. Now, I have been moved to Linux (ubuntu). I am not getting how to launch dlt viewer gui. I have followed,

https://github.com/GENIVI/dlt-viewer.

And referred many links, i don't see how we can use GUI as windows. Can any one suggest where can I find the information to use dlt viewer in Linux.

Tried Yesterday with Ubuntu 16.04 and it was easy following the commands listed in the 'INSTALL.md' file, you will need to install Qt. I paste them here for your utility.

Open a console in the local checkout of dlt-viewer repository.

Instructions for installing DLT Viewer (Linux command line)

sudo apt install build-essential
sudo apt install qtcreator
sudo apt install qt5-default
sudo apt install libqt5serialport5-dev
mkdir build
cd build
qmake ../BuildDltViewer.pro
make
sudo make install
sudo ldconfig
Optional: set the library path: LD_LIBRARY_PATH = .

once it's installed, just call dlt-viewer from the console to open it up.

I am attaching a script which I use to download and install dlt-viewer on ubuntu.

#! /usr/bin/env bash

DLT_DIRECTORY=$(pwd)
DLT_FOLDER="dlt-viewer"


echo "pwd = $(pwd)"

if [ "$#" -ne 1 ]; then
  echo "Path to dlt-viewer is not provided, using the current location for installation";
else
  DLT_DIRECTORY=$1
fi

function CheckIfDltExists()
{
  cd $DLT_DIRECTORY;

  if [ ! -d "$DLT_FOLDER" ]; then
    echo "$DLT_DIRECTORY/$DLT_FOLDER does not exist..."
    echo "Clonig from github..."

  git clone https://github.com/GENIVI/dlt-viewer.git
  fi
}

function SetUpEnvForDlt()
{
  echo "found dlt-viewer in $pwd folder"
  echo "Setting up environment"

  cd $DLT_DIRECTORY; sudo apt-get update;
  sudo apt install build-essential ; sudo apt install qtcreator ; sudo apt install qt5-default; sudo apt install libqt5serialport5-dev; mkdir build; cd build; qmake ../BuildDltViewer.pro; make;  sudo make install; sudo ldconfig

  echo "dlt-viewer installation complete"
}
