I took a little overview, these services are usually only needed for
special cases (locks for e.g. net disks), and almost never configured -
so this was undetected for quite a while.

Xenial:          started, /etc/default/virtlockd installed
Zesty:           started, /etc/default/virtlockd not installed
Artful:          not started, /etc/default/virtlockd not installed
Debian (Buster): not started, /etc/default/virtlockd not installed

I brought a fix into Debian a while ago:
 3.5.0-1:
 * [dd2991f] Ship default file for virtlockd
 * [c3b6ff2] Ship default file for virtlockd (Closes: #863648)

It was not considered SRU worthy (given how few edit the file and could
just create it), but but in addition it seems lost or inactive in
Artful.

For the service not being started that begins in Artful.
So this came in via Debian and we picked it up not realizing the issue so far.
