A new version of the console-data package has been uploaded to the delayed queue.
This version is aimed at cleaning out the package's bug log with bugs which are easy to fix. Some of these bugs are more or less related to Debian Installer (d-i) development. None of these are critical for d-i though. A few will however make d-i a little bit more user friendly. I have tested this upload all past week long. The most "invasive" patch, aimed at alphabetical sorting of keymap names has been sorted for 4 weeks now. This is a very common remark from d-i testers that the keyboard maps list looks like a messy list. I think about raising a fake RC bug in order to prevent it to enter testing. In my opinion, this package has to live in sid so that important bugs are found. Then letting it enter testing will be possible. Doing so will mostly depend whether d-i is released at that time or not. As some udebs are part of d-i initrd's, the final word on propagating this package to testing should be from the d-i team, imho. PS: the delayed queue in in people.debian.org/~tfheen/DELAYED/ for people wanting to grab the udebs and test them on local d-i builds. PLEASE DO THIS as soon as possible. Changes to the package.
