Package: kbd Version: 2.0.3-2 Severity: normal Upstream kbd provides a vlock binary but it's not included in the Debian package. Looking from Debian's changelog it's like that since february 2013.
I know that Debian already provides a separate vlock package (i use it), but it was last updated in 2014, it is currently orphaned and upstream source looks unreacheable (#833843). In light of this, i wonder if the kbd's vlock inclusion could be reconsidered. I don't know if it could be taken as an entire substitute for the vlock package. Looks like Opensuse, Gentoo and Ubuntu still carry a vlock package from the same source as Debian, while Fedora and Archlinux don't have it in their repository and use the one provided with kbd.
