Powerline for your terminal on Ubuntu

I noticed on Fedora it is really easy to enable powerline in your terminal. This article explains it well: http://fedoramagazine.org/add-power-terminal-powerline/

On Ubuntu 15.04 it looks like powerline is pretty easy to enable although it did not appear like the tmux or vim powerline plugins are available from regular repos.

Enable powerline in your terminal like this:

# apt-get install powerline fonts-powerline

~ cat .bashrc
[..]
if [ -f `which powerline-daemon` ]; then
  powerline-daemon -q
  POWERLINE_BASH_CONTINUATION=1
  POWERLINE_BASH_SELECT=1
  . /usr/share/powerline/bindings/bash/powerline.sh
