As it came up int he discussion at:

vlan was only used in the context of ifupdown which is demoted to universe.
Therefore vlan won't be needed in main.

It will be unseeded soon via:
TODO

In addition there is only one dependency left
$ reverse-depends -r focal vlan
Reverse-Depends
===============
* nova-compute-libvirt
* nova-network <-- already got dropped in nova-21.0.0~b1~git2019120415.45fb747c98

Therefore @nova maintainers - please drop the dependency to the "vlan" package which is explicitly listed in d/control at the moment. The code seems to already use `ip link` so it might be just dropping the dependency, but I leave that to the openstack Team.
