Package: console-setup
Version: 1.188
Same here on Debian Buster with console-setup v1.188 and "de" keyboard
layout.
Same as well on Raspbian Buster on RPi2, which has the same
console-setup version and keyboard layout.
I narrowed it down a bid to the "setupcon" command, when configuring the
keyboard:
root@VM-Buster:~# setupcon -v -k
Configuring /dev/tty1 /dev/tty2 /dev/tty3 /dev/tty4 /dev/tty5 /dev/tty6
The charmap is UTF-8
BackSpace is ^?
on /dev/tty1 executing kbd_mode -u.
on /dev/tty2 executing kbd_mode -u.
on /dev/tty3 executing kbd_mode -u.
on /dev/tty4 executing kbd_mode -u.
on /dev/tty5 executing kbd_mode -u.
on /dev/tty6 executing kbd_mode -u.

Possibly related:
- On the VM, the "dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration" dialog has
French language, even that the current locale is set to "en_GB.UTF-8",
not other locale is even generated, current keyboard layout is "de",
console has UTF-8, Latin1+5, 8x16 chars. I also have disabled APT
package translations disabled. This is not the case on an otherwise
identical Stretch VM with v1.164 packages.
- On the RPi, "dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration" does not even
run interactively, even with "-f dialog" or "-f readline" frontend
actively set. It updates "/etc/default/keyboard", but does not change
any value that was set before. Not sure if it's related. I can't find
any error output/log about it.
