This is just to confirm that I'm seeing the same error output during
package upgrade, as follows:
-----------------
Setting up console-common (0.7.54) ...
Installing new version of config file /etc/init.d/keymap.sh ...
Looking for keymap to install:
NONE
loadkeys: /etc/console/boottime.kmap.gz:407: addkey called with bad index 256

gunzip: stdout: Broken pipe
* Problem when loading /etc/console/boottime.kmap.gz, use install-keymap
------------------

It looks like this error (warning?) doesn't fail the upgrade process,
so I'm not sure what to make of it.

The original reporter mentioned seeing it at boot-time, too. Does this
have any particular implications for use of the console after boot?
How about if one is using a non-default keymap?
