Bug Description

Binary package hint: input-utils

The input is often longer than a screenful, and so it would be convenient to pipe it into a pager, but for no apparent reason it goes to stderr instead.

  * debian/patches/show-numeric-key-values: always output the numeric
    value for keycodes in addition to the symbolic name
  * debian/control: Vcs-Browser, not Vcs-Browse.
  * debian/patches/stdout-not-stderr: informational messages should
    always go to stdout by convention, only errors to stderr.
    LP: #307513.
