 > The package that is on deb.tpo does work, it's just that it's not easily
 updated to the latest version

 The current deb.tpo package does not work. Here is a list of outstanding
 problems with it:
 https://github.com/thetorproject/ooni-
 probe/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+label%3Adebian

 > How about if I just upload a new revision of that version with a NEWS
 file to ask users to add the new bintray repository to their APT sources?
 This at least gives them a chance to upload and then later we can remove
 these packages, say after a month or two.

 I would prefer we first come up with a working package and do thorough
 testing of it, before we make any changes to the current package.

 The package that is currently hosted on bintray is not tested at all and
 we currently don't have enough resources to support testing it and working
 on it.
