Comment (by hellais):

 Replying to [comment:3 irl]:
 > Technically yes. I would prefer to just set up deb.ooni.io and get
 people installing the fpm packages from there. I think there are greater
 benefits in onboarding larger numbers of new users than trying to hack our
 way into updating existing users without their explicit buy-in.

 What happens to users that are currently using deb.torproject.org and try
 to upgrade ooniprobe?

 If upgrading to another repository is not an option, how about we publish
 the fpm package also to deb.torproject.org?

 What I am worried about is being getting stuck with a broken installation
 and there not being an easy upgrade path that leaves their system in a
 clean state.

 Users have already done an "explicit buy-in" to installing and using
 ooniprobe if they have added the deb.tpo repository and apt-get installed
 ooniprobe.
