The official download link leads to the ppa. However the ppa recommends to use official binaries.
Which one should then be used and where downloaded from?

Just to clarify the issue, on bitcoin.org/en/download , there's an "Ubuntu" link:

2017-02-10-14_19_09_354991511

Clicking that link takes you to a page that says,

2017-02-10-14_20_08_192984721

Maybe a simple solution for bitcoin.org/en/download is to rename "Ubuntu (PPA)" to "Unofficial PPA". E.g.

@harding @Pixdigit Thanks. Just opened #1507 to resolve this. I added a note underneath the link so that people who don't recognize the Ubuntu logo will still know it's an Ubuntu PPA (and also that it's unofficial).

I closed #1507 unmerged based on the discussion there. There didn't seem to be much weight one way or the other in the convo (and no additional comments) so let's just leave as-is.
