If someone is willing to create and maintain a working snap, that would
be fine as an alternative  for users of existing releases who don't like
PPAs. Only time will tell if whoever it is can finish the job and is
able to support it as well as the PPA has been supported. At this point,
actually removing stale versions would be a bonus, but my main goal is
that get-iplayer should not appear in repos for any future Ubuntu
releases. The upstream package (now very broken) appears to have been
abandoned in sid, but the maintainer was considerate enough to remove it
from Debian testing. Surely that is enough to have get-iplayer removed
from Ubuntu before 17.10 is released.
