[Pkg-kbd-devel] Initial kbd 2.2.0 packaging pushed to git

Hello Debian kbd maintainers,

I just wanted to mention that I looked into packaging the new
upstream release 2.2.0 of kbd. I also took the liberty to push
my work into debian git repo. (I also had to cherry-pick a number
of fixes from upstream git master branch as debian/patches/.)
My main motivation for doing this is that it'll likely soon
be needed because of the FTBFS with gcc-10 issue.

Please note that some further refinement might be needed.
See for example what lintian says about the shipped .so files.

Please review carefully. Hope my initial work helps.

Regards,
Andreas Henriksson
