+livecd-rootfs (2.208.2) UNRELEASED; urgency=medium

+  * If EXTRA_PPAS is set in the environment (as a space-separated sequence
+    of <ppa-owner>/<ppa-name> pairs), fetch signing keys for those from
+    Launchpad using python3-software-properties, and add those PPAs when
+    building the live filesystem.  This makes it easier for a builder to
+    build an image against an additional PPA (LP: #1334374).
