[Pkg-kbd-devel] Bug#692014: kbd: /usr/bin/resizecons is only included on arch i386 and there is no hint why

[Simon Heimberg]

Package: kbd
Version: 1.15.3-9
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainers,

   I wanted to try if resizecons works in a VM guest (amd64) after having found 
   its man page. But I could not run the command and finally found out that it 
   is not there.
   A short research on packages.debian.org showed that the program is only 
   included on arch i386.
   I would like when the system could at least give a hint and tell that this 
   program is not included. I did also not find anything about this in the doc.
