Hey Jean-Samuel and people dealing with the KiCad PPA / linux packaging

The "official" (at least it is the documented approach on how to install
KiCad on Ubuntu <http://kicad-pcb.org/download/ubuntu/>) KiCad PPA does not
have the a kicad package for Ubuntu 18.10 (Cosmic Cuttlefish). This means
that installing KiCad on Ubuntu 18.10 will result in the kicad package from
the mainline apt repository <https://packages.ubuntu.com/cosmic/kicad> to
be installed, even if the js-reynaud/kicad-5 PPA was added to the
repository list.

I wanted to report a bug for this on https://bugs.launchpad.net/~js-reynaud
but this does not seem to be possible. Is this mailing list (and/or direct
emails to Jean-Samuel Reynaud) the correct way to report issues with the
PPA?
