The deployment of LAVA using Ubuntu packages is deprecated in favor of

dedicated LAVA deployment tool [1]. LAVA installation is tested and
supported
on Ubuntu host from version 10.10 to 11.10 (Maverick to Oneiric) [2].
From 11.12 cycle, the following conditions will be applied:
- Linaro Validation PPA [3] won't be updated with latest LAVA releases.
- Bugs affecting packages won't be fixed.
We plan to provide LAVA deployment tool from Linaro Validation PPA.
[1] http://launchpad.net/lava-deployment-tool [2] Ubuntu 10.04 LTS (Lucid) isn't supported due to a bug with upstart [3] http://launchpad.net/~linaro-validation/+archive/ppahttp://launchpad.net/%7Elinaro-validation/+archive/ppa
Does this affect all LAVA packages (eg lava-test, lava-dashboard-tool), or just the ones pertaining to the server?
I would hope that client side tools that have reached a certain degree of maturity (read: you don't need to SRU stuff to ubuntu released version regularly due to changes on server side) would be still be made available in packaging form.
