Ok -- now that we can blame you responsible for such a crime to
neuroimaging if anything goes wrong (I had no feedback yet either
this bleeding edge snapshot is too bleedy), I have uploaded
2.1.0+git715-ge56f961-1 version to all recent ubuntu/debian's so your
16.04 would get it too.

Previous version/snapshots didn't build on 16.04 thus you were having
none available when e.g. 16.10 had   2.1.0-4.3ubuntu1 straight from
ubuntu:

If you (or anyone else on the list) have had experience with ants
before and could compare previous version of ANTs with this snapshot --
would be appreciated if you share your findings.

Enjoy and cheers,
