That line isn't executed in the normal case. There's some weird
formatting going on, but:
if [ "$DISPLAY" ] && which setxkbmap >/dev/null; then
setxkbmap -option '' -model "$model" "$layout" "$variant" "$options" ||
true
# setting the font corrupts X
# setting up the keyboard breaks wayland
if type setupcon >/dev/null 2>&1; then
setupcon --save-only
cat >&2 <<EOF
Your console font configuration will be updated the next time your system
boots. If you want to update it now, run 'setupcon' from a virtual console.
EOF
fi else
case "`uname`" in
GNU)
[ ! -f /var/run/hurd-console.pid ] || kill `cat
/var/run/hurd-console.pid`
;;
*)
if type setupcon >/dev/null 2>&1; then
setupcon --force --save
fi
;;
esac
fi
see the "fi else" - the first branch is taken if $DISPLAY is set and
sexkbmap and setupcon exists.
Is $DISPLAY not set for you when this runs?
You can add `set -x' to the top of
/var/lib/dpkg/info/keyboard-configuration.postinst and run something
like `sudo DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive dpkg-reconfigure
keyboard-configuration' to verify what happens when
keyboard-configuration is configured by dpkg.
I think we should consider maybe removing that case too, but I'd like to
know if that is the actual cause of your problem please.
