-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 Package: console-common Version: 0.7.85 Followup-For: Bug #477704
I clashed into this bug but the other way around. My system is free of UTF-8 waste but the console get set to UTF-8 by this init script. The problem is that unicode_stop (as also the start tool) is in /usr/bin which is not available in this early state of boot. But puting $local_fs to dependencies do not help as other init scripts depends on keymap. One solution would be putting the unicode_{start,stop} tools to /bin. However that is not the best solution. One other would be to split that init script to two scripts. One running first and providing keymap and minimal keyboard settings and one running last after every file system is mounted that set the full keymap. This is the solution I use at the moment for work around. But it is also not so beautiful. One another solution, and in my opinion the best, would be to break the dependency of other packages and move keyboard setup to later state when everything is available. Why I prefer this solution is that in emergency case when I need the console earlier I expect the console in the state the BIOS set. Also this would move a bit complexity that can go wrong to later state. Using console-setup is no solution as it kills the 8 beautiful penguins I like in the top row when booting. :-) It also clears the screen so that debugging is much harder. Finally it is one unnecessary package and every unnecessary package should be eliminated. - -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (800, 'unstable'), (700, 'stable'), (60, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.0.3 (SMP w/8 CPU cores; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=de_DE, LC_CTYPE=de_DE (charmap=ISO-8859-1) (ignored: LC_ALL set to de_DE) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages console-common depends on: ii console-data 2:1.10-9 ii console-tools 1:0.2.3dbs-70 ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.41 ii debianutils 4.0.4 ii lsb-base 3.2-28 console-common recommends no packages. console-common suggests no packages. - -- Configuration Files: /etc/init.d/keymap.sh changed [not included] - -- debconf information: console-data/keymap/powerpcadb: console-data/keymap/ignored: console-data/keymap/full: console-data/keymap/template/keymap: * console-data/keymap/policy: Select keymap from arch list console-data/bootmap-md5sum: 8d72fc32d07909dd7c79a7b1c25a3823 console-data/keymap/template/layout: * console-data/keymap/family: qwertz console-data/keymap/template/variant: Gruß Klaus - -- Klaus Ethgen http://www.ethgen.ch/ pub 4096R/4E20AF1C 2011-05-16 Klaus Ethgen <kl...@ethgen.de> Fingerprint: 85D4 CA42 952C 949B 1753 62B3 79D0 B06F 4E20 AF1C -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) iQGcBAEBCgAGBQJOnqgdAAoJEKZ8CrGAGfasFy0L/j3wIB75AeADf4hQ5m0FlDRW LPWKBl4FHPvksvMFf6VngLfniGpVRHosoXm6R5FoHYCMs3gYJYkqGybGR0LlOmRb xFmwLskoMdQAlZA0Mtenm1Rh0I1xHXBhAf8PmZwtjclSl9ltUV/q7nGC6Sitpgk0 KIkTCNmhERVhtYBdWRQWgjwZINKeMEePSw9Wp/NcznwqWgsXJowL2AJqdclj6Efs ULER1nYW2eEQBzg/4DFwG6ZwOq1gY034E27lE1SnFZBgmWX9CK/5dIl2Zzv64zTj +yOWZiSYzgS+ggjGKqZaZfZvP57U7bZrdJqjsFuZ/PS/81OZqOAwCugtW601/Sz4 ikYUzqtn1k/9vqoIBeybmLzSG88aDOIv3JVbjd31hJXgL+FTS0Qqxj0MHJ2SmG/u rb+RUEPzWMqhJtuWZA4wLVDY9sSLOmiBLH++VXrBvOfy6O+vychBeb+ePG0rW8b2 T4hBjKF4x9QBzfQqCFlQoFnb7aBjtmxceV8B7KLFeQ== =K6ho -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
