** Description changed:

  [Impact]
  
  For the ubuntu-touch initiative development we are using the 
stable-phone-overlay PPA. So far we also used the same PPA to host our 
livecd-rootfs changes for our xenial images but we finally decided to SRU all 
the changes and start using the archive instead. Without these changes SRUed we 
are forced to do a sync re-release of livecd-rootfs to the overlay PPA every 
time a new xenial-updates version is released, which slows us down and is 
completely pointless.
  The list of changes that this SRU covers:
  
   * Temporarily change the 60-install-click.chroot script to pull in clicks 
for arm64 builds from a different location for ubuntu-touch. This is a 
workaround we use for our arm64-experimental builds where we need to use 
separately built arm64 clicks, as the store only hosts armhf binaries right now.
   * Add the new dhcpd user to touch hooks introduced by latest archive changes.
+  * Remove the ubuntu-pd project logic. The ubuntu-pd project is no longer 
used since almost half a year now.
   * Synced ubuntu-touch-custom changes from the vivid branch to xenial. The 
ubuntu-touch-custom cdimage project is a project we use to build custom 
re-builds of ubuntu-touch. It has exactly the same configuration as the regular 
ubuntu-touch project but uses separate builders and a separate export place in 
cdimage.
  
  [Test Case]
  
  No particular test case. Without these changes, xenial touch builds
  would not work at all - all the touch builds so far used the very same
  livecd-rootfs changes as are now proposed for the SRU.
  
  [Regression Potential]
  
  No regression potential, the changes should not affect anything besides
  touch. And for touch, as already mentioned above, we are using these
  changes in production since the release of xenial.
  
  [Other Info]
  
  The change to pull in clicks for arm64 for a different location is not
  released in the development series as we do not intend to build arm64
  images on yakkety. This would also require rebuilding arm64 yakkety-
  based clicks which is not in our current plans.
