[ale] Ubuntu 15.10

[Jim Lynch]

Interesting, I was monitoring the ubuntu irc channel yesterday and 
someone was having trouble with 15.04.  The solution was to get to 15.10 
because 15.04 is fatally flawed and won't be fixed.  They also suggested 
to move up from 15.10 as soon as possible.  They referenced a bug report 
in 15.04 but I wasn't interested so I didn't follow up.  You might do a 
bit of research if you're so inclined.

Jim.
