Hi,

5) If a ppa website says that it explicitly supports yakkety, you're probably 
okay with the ppa signature you have now.  If not, you'll have to run the new 
signature with 'add-apt-repository' and generate new source.list.d files.
Have you ever seen a ppa which supports already the next stable
version before it's released ?
You'll find that the ones that *we* care about will when necessary, at this time all of our dev ppa's are yakkety ready.

Why don't use the daily iso built from the devel version ? Why do you
think it's not easier ?

By the way, I think I should be ready to have a dual-boot with the
actual stable version (Xenial) and with the next release (Yakkety). I
should be ready to use everday the devel version, and come back to
Xenial if something is wrong. But, I have a question, how to deal with
ppa ? As I said, I think it's hard to find ppa which support the devel
version, so, if I need a ppa for my personal work (which support only
stable version), how can I do in order to use it in the devel version
?

Thanks
Florian

Often I've managed to run 'supported' ppa with 'dev' release - just change where it's pointing e.g. if you add a ppa and it's good for xenial and previous but not yakkety - edit the source file to say xenial. _Won't always work - but worth trying_. I have to do that with clementine dev version from ppa.
