Package: console-common Version: 0.7.49 Severity: normal - Add '-x' to the end of the first line in install-keymap - Run, say, 'install-keymap us' - The end of the output will show:

Apparently loadkeys is being chatty and debconf is consuming stdout as a command channel. Other loadkey invocations in the script do use -q.
