Description
What is your current rclone version (output from rclone version)?
latest
What problem are you are trying to solve?
Add a channel of distribution for Ubuntu
How do you think rclone should be changed to solve that?
Initially, the new PPA will have only the main channel with the latest released .deb
Depending on the results of discussion in #5076, we can think about a "backports" channel.

Research direction
Start by reviewing rclone's existing release and package-distribution process, then read the discussion in issue #5076 about the proposed backports channel. Done means an official Launchpad PPA publishes the latest released .deb in the main channel; no source files or tests are identified in this issue.
