Bug Description
[Availability]
Already in universe, in sync with debian.
Built for all supported architectures.
[Rationale]
Ubuntu desktop team wants to enable fingerprint lockscreen unlock support by default in GNOME installations and this source package includes the library used by the fingerprint daemon (fprintd) and the devices drivers.
[Security]
No known security issues.

No upstream tests or autopkgtests.
[Dependencies]
No universe binary dependencies
[Standards compliance]
The package meets the FHS and Debian Policy standards (3.9.8)
[Maintenance]
- Maintened upstream. Last release was 0.7.0 in May

Since new devices support has been added later, it might make sense to ask upstream a new release though.

Looks generally good, some small things I need to get some clarification on:
[ required ] missing- uaccess
- There is some lintian warning on the udev rule: udev-rule-
* Check for a fix with upstream
* Override it in lintian with rationale
[ optional ]
- debian/copyright is clearly out of date, would be better to get it updated with latest copyright owners
- bonus point if you introduce dh_missing --fail-missing
- the -dev package ships a .la file that we normally strip on normal install
As for fprintd, I would like to get a security review on this one to confirm everything's fine.
