Description
Hi 👋🏼,
Could you confirm whether the following PPA is an official source for Timeshift?
launchpad.net/~teejee2008/+archive/ubuntu/timeshift
It appears to be official, but when I read this part (from a bit more than 3 years ago) in the upstream repo, it made me doubt 🤔.
I tried to search around the repo for any mention of this Launchpad PPA but did not reach to a definitive answer.
There are a few issues in the repo that discuss the PPA, but I couldn’t find a clear statement confirming if is official or not.
If the PPA is official, could we add a note to the root README (in the installation section for Debian‑based distributions) suggesting that users may add this PPA to obtain a more up‑to‑date Timeshift version?
At the end of this section maybe 🤔.

| ### Debian-based Distributions | |
| Debian, Ubuntu, Linux Mint, Elementary OS, etc. | |
| Install Timeshift from the repositories: | |
| ```sh | |
| sudo apt-get update | |
| sudo apt-get install timeshift | |
| ``` |
For reference, my current Timeshift package is a bit old:
$ apt show timeshift 2>&1 | grep -i version
Version: 24.01.1-1build2Jan 4 2024
Adding the PPA ...
$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:teejee2008/timeshift
$ sudo apt update... would allow users to install the latest build, such as:
25.07.7-0~202512041546~ubuntu25.04.1
Thank you for any clarification you can provide.
