** Description changed:

  Snap development using Mir has been using the "stable phone overlay" PPA
  which is both inconvenient and a legacy of the cancelled Unity8 project.
  
  It would greatly simplify things if Mir were updated in the Xenial
  archive.
  
  Mir has two categories of dependent project:
  
    1 packages related to Unity8 (and unity-system-compositor)
    2 toolkits and other "clients" of Mir
  
  We should remove the first category as it is not helpful to carry these
  in the LTS.
  
  The second category is dependent only on libmirclient which is ABI
  stable
  
  notes:
  
  A recursive search or rdependencies identifies the following packages in
  category 1:
  
  camera-app-autopilot
  gallery-app-autopilot
  indicator-network-autopilot
  indicators-client
- python3-mir-perf-framework
  qtdeclarative5-qtmir-plugin
  qtmir-android
  qtmir-desktop
  qtmir-tests
  ubuntu-desktop-mir
  ubuntu-experience-tests
  ubuntu-pocket-desktop
  ubuntu-push-autopilot
  ubuntu-touch
  ubuntu-touch-session
  unity8
  unity8-autopilot
  unity8-desktop-session-mir
  unity-scope-click-autopilot
  unity-system-compositor
  unity-system-compositor-autopilot
