</div>In different distributions there are different versions of vlock. This<br>
happened because for long time vlock project was abandoned. ALTLinux<br>
and Fedora had same version of vlock. Some time ago, i merged<br>
altlinux's version. Later i merged patches from Fedora. This version<br>
is not a replacement for vlock-2... at least for now.<br>
<br>
Archlinux maintainer was wrong if he replaced vlock-2 by kbd-vlock.<br>

Then maybe this should be made a bit more clear, and yes person that packaged kbd for arch linux was wrong. </div>
<div>Thanks for the reply! </div></div>
