Package: console-common
Version: 0.7.54
Followup-For: Bug #332745

Hi,

Me too:

% apt-get install --reinstall console-common
....
Preparing to replace console-common 0.7.54 (using 
.../console-common_0.7.54_all.deb) ...
Unpacking replacement console-common ...
Setting up console-common (0.7.54) ...
Looking for keymap to install:
NONE
loadkeys: /etc/console/boottime.kmap.gz:446: addkey called with bad index 256
* Problem when loading /etc/console/boottime.kmap.gz, use install-keymap

% dpkg-reconfigure console-common
Looking for keymap to install:
NONE
loadkeys: /etc/console/boottime.kmap.gz:446: addkey called with bad index 256
* Problem when loading /etc/console/boottime.kmap.gz, use install-keymap

The offending line 446 seems to be this: "keycode 257 = Escape".

It does seem to have implications. I have a Finnish keyboard, but my
console seems to assume the US layout now, most likely due to this
problem.

If you need any further information, please ask.

Best regards,
Jukka Suomela
