[Bug 1544207] [NEW] Please remove/sync-blacklist tails-installer from Ubuntu archive

Hi,

As the Debian Maintainer of this package, I'd like to request that it
will not be pulled automatically to Ubuntu Xenial.

The reasoning is that we, the Tails Developers, still modify the code
heavily and want to be able to push updates, and especially security
updates to Ubuntu users quickly enough. That's why we prefer that Ubuntu
users use our PPA instead: https://launchpad.net/~tails-
team/+archive/ubuntu/tails-installer (also see installation instructions
on https://tails.boum.org/install/debian/usb/index.en.html)

In Debian, we distribute Tails Installer only through jessie-backports
to the current stable release.

I know that I am making this request quite late and hope for your
kindness to take it into account before the next freeze.
