** Description changed:

- 
  I request that the realmd package be included in the main repository.
  
  I've checked the following things:
  
  ---
  1. Availability: realmd is already in universe.  It's compiled for all 
platforms.
  
  2. Rationale: This is used by many enterprise or organizations that use
  Microsoft's Active Directory as their main directory system. This
  package is the most sensible way to have Linux machines join an AD
  domain. As security policies become tighter, more enterprises are
  requiring the Linux machines use Active Directory for authentication.
  
  3. Security:
  
  The changelog goes from 2013 to Oct 2019. It has been supported for a
  while and is receiving updates.
  
  4. Quality Assurance:
  
  The realm tool is well documented. It asks no debconf questions that I'm
  aware of.
  
  I'm using it in production systems. It's been very stable.  I've
  reviewed the debian and ubuntu bugs for realmd. I don't see any show-
  stopper bugs. The bugs that are open are no longer applicable or have
  workarounds.
  
  The packages have no exotic hardware dependencies.
  
  5. UI Standards: This is a backend package. UI standards don't apply.

  I'm not fluent enough with Ubuntu packaging to handle the in-depth
  package checking.
