console-setup-linux fails during debootstrap fakeroot variant

[Ken Sharp]

During a debootstrap --variant=fakeroot installation, console-setup-linux fails to complete:

Setting up console-setup-linux (1.226ubuntu1) ...
update-alternatives: using /etc/console-setup/vtrgb to provide /etc/vtrgb (vtrgb) in auto mode
*** buffer overflow detected ***: terminated
Aborted (core dumped)
dpkg: error processing package console-setup-linux (--configure):
 installed console-setup-linux package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 134

This is probably a fakeroot bug and will reassign once the cause is known.
