Package: console-setup Version: 1.50 Severity: normal Hi and thanks for maintaining console-setup!
On a box where console-setup-mini was installed, I issued the following command: # aptitude install console-setup console-setup-mini- in order to switch from console-setup-mini to console-setup. Some configuration files are present in /etc/console-setup/ : $ ls /etc/console-setup/ cached.kmap.gz compose.ISO-8859-13.inc compose.ISO-8859-8.inc compose.ARMSCII-8.inc compose.ISO-8859-14.inc compose.ISO-8859-9.inc compose.CP1251.inc compose.ISO-8859-15.inc compose.KOI8-R.inc compose.CP1255.inc compose.ISO-8859-16.inc compose.KOI8-U.inc compose.CP1256.inc compose.ISO-8859-1.inc compose.TIS-620.inc compose.GEORGIAN-ACADEMY.inc compose.ISO-8859-2.inc compose.VISCII.inc compose.GEORGIAN-PS.inc compose.ISO-8859-3.inc Lat15-Fixed16.psf.gz compose.IBM1133.inc compose.ISO-8859-4.inc Lat15-TerminusBold16.psf compose.ISIRI-3342.inc compose.ISO-8859-5.inc remap.inc compose.ISO-8859-10.inc compose.ISO-8859-6.inc compose.ISO-8859-11.inc compose.ISO-8859-7.inc They seem to belong to console-setup-mini: $ dpkg -l | grep ^rc | cut -c 1-60 rc console-setup-mini 1.50 OK, let's purge console-setup-mini, in order to clean the system up: # aptitude purge console-setup-mini Let's check: $ dpkg -l | grep ^rc | cut -c 1-60 $ ls /etc/console-setup/ ls: cannot access /etc/console-setup/: No such file or directory Wait, but that directory has a name that makes me think it should be useful to console-setup... # aptitude reinstall console-setup And now: $ ls /etc/console-setup/ cached.kmap.gz Lat15-Fixed16.psf.gz Hence, after switching from console-setup-mini to console-setup and purging console-setup-mini, some configuration files that seem to be useful for both console-setup-mini and console-setup get lost. This problem was mentioned by me during the discussions of bug #546983, but it seems to be still unfixed. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (800, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.30-2-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages console-setup depends on: ii console-terminus 4.30-2 Fixed-width fonts for fast reading ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.28 Debian configuration management sy ii keyboard-configuration 1.50 system-wide keyboard preferences ii xkb-data 1.7-1 X Keyboard Extension (XKB) configu Versions of packages console-setup recommends: ii console-tools 1:0.2.3dbs-66 Linux console and font utilities Versions of packages console-setup suggests: ii locales 2.10.2-2 GNU C Library: National Language ( ii lsb-base 3.2-23 Linux Standard Base 3.2 init scrip -- debconf information excluded -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
