Bug Description

Binary package hint: console-setup

console-setup asked me some keyboard questions after installation here (machine originally installed with some breezy pre-release, but current edgy now).

Name: debian-installer/keymap
Template: debian-installer/keymap
Value: no-latin1

I'll attach my xorg.conf and /etc/default/console-setup too

It asked me, too on two machines recently upgraded to edgy. One was being updated via dselect over ssh and the other was updated via update-manager.

console-setup (1.7ubuntu12) edgy; urgency=low

  * Don't run the init script (and thereby setupcon) on upgrade; just print
    a message telling you to run setupcon from a virtual console if you want
    to update your console configuration (closes: Malone #61723).
  * Update debian-installer/keymap handling from trunk (Anton Zinoviev).
    Drop /etc/X11/xorg.conf upgrade handling, also per trunk, as I've been
    convinced that that is much less safe due to the prevalence of GNOME/KDE
    keymap overrides, and furthermore it made it more difficult to have
    ubiquity tell console-setup just to guess a default from the locale.
  * Drop the priority of the model and layout questions to medium if a
    configuration file already exists, since they'll have been asked at
    medium first time round and if we then ask them at critical the second
    time round they will be unexpectedly shown (closes: Malone #59883).
  * Backport from trunk:
    - config.proto: Handle properly the case when the user backs up from the
      first Debconf question.
