Recently did an aptitude upgrade, and the install hung on installation of console-setup.
Did a pstree, and found it seemed to be hung calling plymouth. Killed plymouth process, and install seemed to complete.
However, if I do an aptitude reinstall console-setup, I get the same issue.
Same if I run from hvc0 or pts/n.
