Mh. If something breaks that is a problem in the packaging that should
be fixed. This PPA is very much supported where any issue that comes
up should be answerable with either 'transitional, wait 3 hours then
upgrade' or 'omg something broke, let's fix it'.

(that being said, right now it will also fail while things are
building, for which I am supposed to come up with a solution this
week...)
