Hi Adil.

Avocado is not supported by the primary development team on
Ubuntu, but we welcome bug reports and messages seeking
assistance on the mailing list. The team will do their best to
fix low hanging fruit problems and will gladly accept patches
with fixes on other distros or platforms.  Besides, others from
the community may be able to help.

Since we're talking about supportability, it's worth linking to
some previous documentation about this subject:

    RFC: Avocado maintainability and integration with avocado-vt
    https://www.redhat.com/archives/avocado-devel/2016-April/msg00038.html

    Getting Started documentation:

Thanks.
