No point claiming support if there isn't any.

We have really only relied on the fact that Xubuntu were helping to
support our desktop, and everything in "main" being supported by
Canonical. We have not had the manpower for SRU (Stable Release Updates)
for the other multimedia packages we care about.

On the other hand, it would be good to have an LTS always available.
Many users prefer not to have to constantly update. Our 16.04 LTS will
not be supported after April 2019.
