Thank you kindly. I will certainly have questions once I try it out. For

https://github.com/LMMS/lmms/wiki/Packaging-Ubuntu-PPA
I invite anyone that has time to try it to edit it and put it into proper
markdown format. For now, it's been slightly modified and placed into a
large codeblock until someone has time to comb through it.
