Supported by _Ubuntu_.

Ubuntu 16.04 LTS has been out for over a year. If you don't want to
upgrade, this has consequences for the amount of support upstream will
be able to provide for your old software.

They'll say "use 16.04". I doubt that they will feel that backports to
14.04 are a useful investment for anything but severe security fixes.
That being said, our packagers install (und uninstall) reasonably
