Package: boot-floppies Version: N/A; reported 2004-02-09 Severity: normal Despite choosing the UK keyboard option during installation, the key-combo Shift-3 produces #/n (Octothorpe/linefeed) instead of the correct £ (Pound) sign at the console.
loadkeys uk fails to fix the problem. Eventually after about an hours internet search I find that adding Meta-#: "\C-v£" to /etc/inputrc fixed this. I don't know if this is the 'right' way to do this (particularly as I needed a £ sign to be able to do it. :-) ). This is a irritating problem that I should not have had to waste so much time on.
