Bug#116937: lckdutils
I did indeed make an intent to package, however I was contacted by the
original person who was going to package it and was told that someone
else was working on putting it together, so I contacted that person
back in March, and include their response below. I was assuming that
they would send something to the BTS about the fact that they were
actually working on it, but apparantly they didn't.
I would like to get this package in, as I am particularly eager to
have it available (especially since I am maintaining the kernel
patch), and am wondering if Arnd is still intending to get a package
made?
