Installing new version of config file /etc/init.
Installing new version of config file /etc/init.
* Setting up console font and keymap... [ OK ]
This caused my screen to become corrupted and unreadable in X. I had to switch to a text console and back in order to read anything again.

console- setup.postinst contains "setupcon --force --save";
--force do not check whether we are on the console
That seems to be the culprit.
