[ubuntu-studio-devel] New for saucy

[lukefromdc at hushmail.com]

Meanwhile a lot of packages are not in Saucy's repos. A couple weeks ago, I used
a then-current DVD installer to put a new version of US on my test partition, then
ran it through my ongoing Cinnamon DE experiments. In order to install it from a 
PPA specified for Saucy, I had to install a whole bunch of packages out of Raring
repos that have been removed!  In fact, my current working desktop, although 
following Saucy, could not be duplicated without access to Raring's repos.
