Ubuntu OMAP trunk

The "omap-trunk" Launchpad PPA contains TI packages upgrades based on the Ubuntu official releases for OMAP4.

These upgrades are based on recent development snapshots from TI public development trees. Even if these upgrades are tested, they are still based on development branches, and may be less stable than the official Ubuntu deliveries. You shall consider this when upgrading with this PPA content and accept potential regressions.
