Yes, trivial, but somehow I don't like this. I don't see why c-s has to

It's not actually a change in D-I. There's simply more than one way to

This is wrong. Console-setup can not configure the console

In the past c-s used strong dependency but I changed it to only

do not have kbd or console-tools (i.e. BSD).
The dependency could be dropped on those archs

We can also use a parameter when

D-I does not follow Recommends during base-installer (as discussed last
month). This means that currently console-setup gets installed without kbd
and console-tools.
Would it be better in your opinion to force installation of Recommends for
console-setup? What exactly is the
