--------------------------------+------------------------
 Recently, our pull requests have been failing CI, because Travis-CI is
 using the "Precise" platform (Ubuntu 12.04 LTS), which reached its end-of-
 life back in april. It appears that torproject.org no longer offers .deb
 packages for precise, so the "integration" tests (which try to install the
 latest Tor via a torproject.org PPA) fail.

 The fix will be to update our `.travis.yml` to request a newer platform,
 probably Xenial (16.04 LTS).
