Howdy,

You were getting that error due to a PPA not being published for the release you were on. This isn't from Ubuntu or Xubuntu, xfce4-terminal, or anything we control. You may wish to contact the ~artfwo user in regards to whatever PPA issues, if you still have said issues.

Changed in xfce4-terminal (Ubuntu):
