Package: console-data
Version: 2002.12.04dbs-49

1. I install Debian Sarge.
2. I do "dpkg-reconfigure locales", and select "es_ES.UTF-8" locale by
default (I'm Spanish, and I want to use UTF-8 coding by default).
3. Now and then, I can't type accented chars (áéíóú) in the text
consoles (tty1, tty2, etc.). That chars are "dead keys": I must to type
the accent key, and then type the vocal.

I think UTF-8 doens't works very well with the Spanish keyboards and the
"dead keys".

Obviously, this issue renders the console unusable in Spanish keyboards
with UTF-8.

Any ideas?

Ricardo.
