[Ubuntu] Moving packages from Unstable to Stable (Trusty)

[Angelos Tzotsos]

Looks like there is a demand to do the same package moving for Xenial 
too, so unless someone has an objection to that, I would like to move 
the packages to stable in the next 48 hours. Actually doing this for 
Xenial is easier since there are no packages for this release in stable 
until today.
