Public bug reported:

hi!

Interestingly the CI-bot copied over some Unity-8 packages [1].

Apart from the subject that these packages still have to be considered
as state eq "experimental" the project [2] has it's own sources.

Considering the amount of time beeing spent in regards to the Kubuntu,
it's certainly not intended to garden these too + they won't show up as
superseeded by common sources.

They should by no means walk over to the ppa-backports, even not with
best intentions. In very special as it may lead testers away to
concentrate on the flavour of Ubuntu we are about.

Best wishes for the beta-release!
