Thank for your action and help. I merged your PR after our quick discussion
yesterday.

Not sure, I just closed an issue on github where someone were trying to use
PAF 2.1 on ubuntu 14... And I know a bunch of companies that are still
migrating from Debian 7 to Debian 8 or deploying EL6 :/

But anyway, packages for 1.1 are available on github, so I'm perfectly fine if
you prefer to keep it simple on PGDG repo. I'm in favor to convince people
upgrading their OS.

I can not access them.
