I have this same problem and I tried this solution and it didn't fix the problem for me. However, when I then ran 'rm /etc/console-setup/cached_*' and then 'setupcon --save-only' and this fixed the problem. As I am running etckeeper, I checked to see the difference in the newly generated files and noticed that the old loadkeys in /etc/console-setup/cached_setup_keyboard.sh refers to a temporary file in /tmp whereas the new version refers to /etc/console-setup/cached_UTF-8_del.kmap.gz instead. See here: root@duck:/etc# git diff diff --git a/console-setup/cached_setup_keyboard.sh b/console-setup/cached_setup_keyboard.sh index bdc822d..30b46c1 100755 --- a/console-setup/cached_setup_keyboard.sh +++ b/console-setup/cached_setup_keyboard.sh @@ -10,4 +10,4 @@ kbd_mode '-u' < '/dev/tty3' kbd_mode '-u' < '/dev/tty4' kbd_mode '-u' < '/dev/tty5' kbd_mode '-u' < '/dev/tty6' -loadkeys '/tmp/tmpkbd.iDWdSi' > '/dev/null' +loadkeys '/etc/console-setup/cached_UTF-8_del.kmap.gz' > '/dev/null' root@duck:/etc# It would seem to me that when the original cached_setup_keyboard.sh was generated previously, the temporary file was incorrectly put into /etc/ console-setup/cached_setup_keyboard.sh instead of the correct file.
