Is module keytar intentionally not installed.

If so, you may close the issue.

Lines 108 to 114 in a1af9e2

	# Use the package.json for the web/remote server. It does not have the right
	# version though so pull that from the main package.json. Also remove keytar
	# since the web does not rely on it and that removes the dependency on
	# libsecret.
	jq --slurp '.[0] * {version: .[1].version} | del(.dependencies.keytar)' \
	"$VSCODE_SRC_PATH/remote/package.json" \
	"$VSCODE_SRC_PATH/package.json" > "$VSCODE_OUT_PATH/package.json"

So this is on purpose.
