Yes I can confirm this. Probably it was caused by the upgrade of Qt to 5.9.

EDIT: Seems to be that the 5.9 version is still missing;
Code: Select all
# apt-cache policy qtvirtualkeyboard
qtvirtualkeyboard:
  Installiert:           5.7.1-0neon+16.04+build14
  Installationskandidat: 5.7.1-0neon+16.04+build14
  Versionstabelle:
 *** 5.7.1-0neon+16.04+build14 500
        500 http://archive.neon.kde.org/release xenial/main amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
     5.7.1-0neon+16.04+build2 500
        500 http://archive.neon.kde.org/release xenial/main amd64 Packages

Thanks. I'm pretty disappointed. Such an issue should never occur in a user branch.

I'm by no means knowledgeable but seems to me the packages lack synchronicity and predictability as to how they work together.

Yes, this was, gently said, a little bit unfortunate. But now it's fixed:
Code: Select all
apt-cache policy qtvirtualkeyboard
qtvirtualkeyboard:
  Installiert:           5.9.0-0neon+16.04+xenial+build15
  Installationskandidat: 5.9.0-0neon+16.04+xenial+build15
  Versionstabelle:
 *** 5.9.0-0neon+16.04+xenial+build15 500
        500 https://archive.neon.kde.org/release xenial/main amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
     5.7.1-0neon+16.04+build14 500
        500 https://archive.neon.kde.org/release xenial/main amd64 Packages
     5.7.1-0neon+16.04+build2 500
        500 https://archive.neon.kde.org/release xenial/main amd64 Packages
