Dear Maintainer,
*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***
* After an unsuccessful use of kmscon, I removed the package.
* apt remove kmscon
* The package was removed but when I rebooted the machine, I did not get my
linux consoles back.
* The system to be in the same state than it was before I installed kmscon,
that is to say with all the virtual consoles available (CTRL-ALT-Fn)
* I suspect systemd is spooking somewhere
