Bug Description
Binary package hint: console-setup
On startup console-setup doesn't startup and I have wrong font on my console - it doesn't display Cyrillic.
When I try to start it by hand I get:
xxx@xxx:~/$ sudo service console-setup start
console-setup stop/waiting
When I do dpkg-reconfigure I get console font loaded until next reboot.
I have all maveric, recently updated from 10.04. All updates installed regularly.
Please let me know if I can provide any more information.
Thanks.

Looks like the problem is in upstart config for console setup: ------- ------- ------- - console- setup.conf
-------
$ cat /etc/init/
# console-setup - set console keymap
#
# Set the console keyboard as early as possible so that the administrator
# can interact with the system during file system checks. The keymap may be
# set on any virtual console as long as it isn't in raw mode; loadkeys will
# go and look for one such, and fail if it can't find one.
description "set console keymap and font"
start on (virtual- filesystems
or starting rcS
or starting mountall-shell)
task
exec loadkeys /etc/console- setup/cached. kmap.gz ------- ------- ------- -
-------
And I'd guess that it should call /bin/setupcon (from console-setup package) which loads both - keys and font.
Am I wrong?
