Package: console-setup
Version: 1.3
Severity: important
Running setupcon only affects the keyboard, not the console font.
The console is using the radeonfb framebuffer.

At the very least, these error messages are not helpful in determining
the problem.
Possible causes:
1. compressed files
strace talks about .gz compressed terminus font files, which
suggests that possibly setupcon would work if they were
uncompressed. I have not done any experiments with that yet.
2. Incompatible with (radeonfb) framebuffer console
If so, please add a HUGE BOLD warning on it.
