Package: console-tools
Version: 1:0.2.3dbs-65
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

The console-screen.sh scripts sets the NUM_CONSOLES variable only if
setting a global default font, but it's also referenced if setting the
keyboard LEDS (which is run independently).  The patch below simply
relocates the variable assignment, to make it available for both tasks.
