So I uploaded lsvpd to the xenial archive with this change; but then
after testing, I see that it merely trades one set of errors for
another.
- iprconfig is not shipped as /usr/sbin/iprconfig in Ubuntu, but as
/sbin/iprconfig; so adding the dependency does not remove the error.
- adjusting paths so that vpdupdate can find iprconfig results in a new stream
of other error messages when invoking vpdupdate:
iprconfig[91936]: Could not open /dev/sg28. No such file or directory
iprconfig[91936]: Could not open /dev/sg28. No such file or directory

iprconfig[91936]: Could not open /dev/sg30. No such file or directory
iprconfig[91936]: Could not open /dev/sg30. No such file or directory
(etc)
- after running vpdupdate with fixed paths, the output of 'lsvpd' is
almost precisely identical from before. Only two lines of diference in
the output, and it appears that the new output contains less information
rather than more?

Perhaps because this particular system doesn't support ipr scsi? Or
perhaps, it's because if iprutils aren't installed, one can assume that
ipr scsi isn't configured and therefore iprconfig is not going to
provide any additional information...
So I'm not sure that the dependency on iprutils is actually required.
But I am reasonably certain that vpdupdate should be fixed to suppress
error output from iprconfig instead of displaying it.
Please consider whether making this change to lsvpd upstream is a better
fix.
For reference, here is the output of 'iprconfig -c show-config 2>/dev/null' on
the system where I tested:
