Automatic nightly builds from trunk.

We build packages for every supported Ubuntu release

<https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases>. Packages need no longer be updated

when the release passes end-of-life because all users should

have upgraded by then.

We build a distinct package for each distrorelease.

If you upload a release-specific version, you should add a suffix to the

package version, e.g. ``bzr.1.3-1~bazaar1~dapper1``.

upload again or copy the packages into the release ppa. That reduces the

risk of breaking the main archive from which people get bzr updates.
