In the zesty package /usr/bin/intel-virtual-output is installed, so
closing this bug in Ubuntu and adding an Ubuntu (Xenial) task.

The patch is incomplete — according to the Debian package changelog, you
need to add some build-dependencies.

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  xserver-xorg-video-intel 2.99.904 adds support for virtual displays
  that can be used to clone to discrete outputs. The tool to do this is
  included with the xserver-xorg-video-intel source (with not-so-great
  man page and all), but the binary is currently not shipped by Ubuntu
  trusty, despite being built. It is shipped in utopic and later.

  The tool will allocate a virtual output for the specified outputs on a
  different X server (or for all outputs with the -a parameter). It will
  also copy over resolution information etc from xrandr. You can then
  use your desktop environment's display tool to configure these
  external displays the way you would normally do in a non-hybrid
  situation.

  Since the trusty release is LTS, this bug qualifies for SRU status "to
  enable new hardware," or rather, newly supported at the time of the
  trusty release.

  [Test Case]

  1) Install the package.
  2) Attempt to execute /usr/bin/intel-virtual-output in a shell.

  [Regression Potential]

  Absolutely none.

  [Other Info]

  The intel-gpu-tools package is the only reverse dependency, and that
  package has no reverse dependencies in turn.
