Hi Dominic, Mixing 2.2.x shouldn't be an issue unless you hit one of the issues listed in the changelog.
Regarding PPA, Otto announced a long time ago that he needs co-maintainers. Volunteers are required to take on the task. Without this, your option is to use pip to install rdiff-backup as described in the main README.
