Upstream set the module chan_vpb as disabled by default somewhere
between versions 1.8 and 11. I forgot about it and thus the current
package does not build the module. This should be fixed in the next
upload (which should be soon, the package FTBFS). But I'll use this
excuse to ask the following question:

I wonder if moving it to a subpackage makes more sense now.
* Now that dahdi is on a separate sub-package, libvpb is the only one
  pulling, by recommendation, module-assistant.
* libvpb0 has a high-priority debconf question. Having it with such a
  high priority does not make sense if most of the users installing it
  install it just for Asterisk.

So, a separate subpackagee?
