Hi,

I'm observing Travis CI builds failures which seem not related to
any changes in SOCI code or scripts; I have not touched
any configuration or scripts related to Travis.

The last build that succeeded happened three months ago
https://travis-ci.org/SOCI/soci/builds/550196441

As preparation for SOCI 4.0.0, a week ago I started merging
some minor fixes and improvements, and Travis CI stopped working
https://travis-ci.org/SOCI/soci/builds/584571972

I run quite a few tests and even `sudo apt-get update` or
`sudo apt-get install` happened to fail, networking issues happen.
I suspect, this is related to decommissioning of the Precise environment.
I'm really not interested in spending a week or two struggling
to get this deprecated environment back in shape.

I'm going to try switch to Trusty, despite I gave the idea up a year ago
https://github.com/SOCI/soci/pull/575#issuecomment-327534271

I suspect, DB2 and Oracle builds may be major troublemakers
due to run-time environment or obstacles in downloading and
deploying Oracle. I am not going to die hard to make these two work [1].
I need to issue SOCI 4.0.0 as soon as possible.

Best regards,

[1] Oracle has proved to be a f***king grand PITA to use on CI-s
