These and many more are not shipped. See also notes in debian/rules.

 Can you please add them?

Someone would have to investigate how the integrate with the rest of
Debian. For example we don't ship login-related utilities from
util-linux in Debian, because they are shipped by src:shadow.
Should we be shipping only lslogins from util-linux? Should we
start a discussion with shadow maintainers about deprecating that
implementation and moving over to the same implementation used by
all other (non-Debian-derived) distributions to benefit from their
bugfixing work? etc...

Please feel free to volunteer sorting out the details on why/if they
should be added.

Regards,
Andreas Henriksson

Bug#775371: util-linux: upstream tools not installed: lslogins, zramctl, setpriv

2015-01-14 Thread Alastair Irvine
Package: util-linux
Version: 2.25.2-4
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

There are several utilities that are not present in any of
the binary packages built from util-linux under jessie.

  setpriv was introduced by upstream v2.23.
  lslogins was introduced by upstream v2.25.
  (FYI, zramctl was introduced by upstream v2.26.)

I installed the source from jessie and confirmed by checking the
debian/*.install files and the file util-linux binary package
file list* that lslogins and setpriv are not present. 

Can you please add them?
