Thanks for that push, I've updated all freemint build scripts. Now
everything will work automatically, I don't need to update anything when
Travis CI switches to a later Ubuntu distro.

Totally btw, this has showed me two lessons when making things universal:

   - The fact that 95% of all scripting content is downloaded from
   https://github.com/freemint/travis-pr made this change trivial -- just
   changed one file (install-cross-mint.sh) and that was it
   - Trouble was that I wanted to make this file (install-cross-mint.sh)
   universal so I specified one parameter as a distro name; so in the end I
   had to update every repository anyway, just removing that one single word
   "trusty" when calling that script ;)
