Bug#388035: boottime.kmap for Croatian has broken altgr+. and altgr+,

[Josip Rodin]

Package: install
Version: etch beta 3

Hi,

I've no idea where to file this, so please reassign wherever necessary.

The console keymap installed when one installs from a etch beta netinst
CD has two broken keybindings, fixed by the attached patch.

Oddly enough, when I ran kbd-config after install and explicitly selected
qwertz/Croat, it fixed this problem. No idea how, since the console-data
file also has it broken (I just filed a separate bug report about that, too.)

TIA.

 If I understand you correctly you selected the Croation keymap and after 
 the reboot noticed the problem with the bindings?
 
 A patch for boottime.kmap makes no sense. boottime.kmap is just a copy of 
 whatever keymap was selected during installation. So, that you see the 
 same error in qwertz/Croat makes perfect sense. Indeed d-i uses udebs 
 generated with console-data as the source for keymaps.

Ah, so one copy came from a .deb, and the other from the .udeb. Gotcha.

 As you already filed a bug (I assume with the same patch) against 
 console-data and as the problem after installation should automatically 
 get solved when that is fixed, I am closing this bug report.

It's not actually the very same patch because the formatting of the file is
different, but the content is the same. Thanks.
