Current official Ubuntu packages are not up-to-date with scrapy 1.1 and users are having trouble with them (see #2076, #2136)

The docs need to reflect that and not recommend using them.

This page http://doc.scrapy.org/en/latest/topics/ubuntu.html#topics-ubuntu is not relevant these days.

warning for apt-get install scrapyd on ubuntu

As determined over at Scrapy, the apt-get method is based on an outdated package and an install won't work (even if instructions are correctly followed) on Ubuntu 16.04 and above. See scrapy/scrapy#2137 for further information.
