Package: console-setup
Version: 1.15
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch
I have found it useful to have a --save-only option to setupcon, which
acts like 'setupcon --save' except that it does *not* attempt to set the
keyboard or font immediately. This is useful so that you can run
'setupcon --save-only' while in X to get the keymap and font onto the
root filesystem, e.g. on upgrade, and avoid triggering problems caused
by some kernel console drivers (at least vgacon) being fundamentally
unable to change the font only on some virtual consoles and corrupting
video memory if you try.
The attached patch implements this option.
Thanks,

Changes:
console-setup (1.16) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Update ckbconf with the most recent list of xkeysyms.
* Thanks to Colin Watson and Ubuntu team for the many bugs and
improvements fixed in this release. Patches were provided by Colin
Watson:
- Do not sorce the debconf library in the middle of the postinst,
closes: #420831.
- Remove from the source package several directories
debian/UDEB-PACKAGE-NAME. (The udebs were removed from
debian/control before running the clean target.) Closes: #420912.
- Map fr_CH locale to Swiss French default keyboard
layout in config.proto. Closes: #420828.
- Pass xkbdir variable on the make-command line, because else its
value is overriden and the keymap definitions in Keyboard/ckb are
used. Closes: #420827.
- A new option --save-only for setupcon.
- Ship KeyboardNames.pl and kbdnames-maker. Closes: #420914.
- Fix Esperanto locale check in config.proto, closes: #420785. Make
'epo' the default layout for Esperanto.
- The Bosnian layout is 'ba', not 'bs'. Closes: #420787.
- The layout variant is 'deva', not 'dev'. Closes: #420797.
- Do not leave empty default codeset for unsupported locales.
Closes: #420802.
- Use 'jp(latin)' instead of 'us' in the Latin mode of Japanese
keyboards. Override the keyboard model if it was chosen by default
and the layout is Japanese or Brasilian. Closes: #420824.
- Add --save-only option to setupcon. Closes: #420832.
- Multiply the Installer-Menu-Item field of the udebs by 100.
Closes: #421260.
- By default do not use AltGr with basic US keyboard. Closes: #421263.
- Make sure amiga, ataritt, sun4 and sun5 are in KeyboardNames.pl even
if they are not in the xml database. Closes: #420821.
- Talk about 'national' instead of 'non-Latin' mode in the templates.
Treat the Lithuanian keyboard as a two-mode keyboard similarly to
the Serbian keyboard. Closes: #421261.
* Do not ignore the Control+ and Alt+non_symbol_key combinations.
Thanks to Karsten Hilbert, closes: #421796.
* Two additions to the FAQ:
- Add a suggestion for the VBERestore option. Thanks to Dmitry
Semyonov, closes: #402143.
- Document CapsLock working as ShiftLock in Unicode mode.
* Added manual page for setupcon. Thanks to Vassilis Pandis,
closes: #405005.
* Added Dutch translation. Thanks to Bart Cornelis, closes: #415518.
* Updated Bulgarian translation.
