Hello everyone. Long time Debian user, newly subscribed to the mailing list.
I upgraded from current Debian 11 to 12.1 today. Almost everything worked great, but during early boot I'm now getting the following message: unknown keysym 'dead_abovering' /etc/console-setup/cached_UTF-8_del.kmap:27: syntax error syntax error in map file key bindings not changed This is printed before the root file system fsck. Uncompressing /etc/console-setup/cached_UTF-8_del.kmap.gz, line 27 is for "keycode 26" and does indeed list "dead_abovering" on that line (multiple times). My /etc/console-setup/cached_UTF-8_del.kmap.gz has md5sum fcb9f3d5d1ca4d2d1b97f7794e32f3ed in case that helps identify the exact file in use. The .gz file is named in /etc/console-setup/cached_setup_keyboard.sh and executing the loadkeys command from that script from within an Xfce session gets me: Loading /etc/console-setup/cached_UTF-8_del.kmap.gz ...(lots of assuming/found)... unknown keysym 'dead_abovering' /etc/console-setup/cached_UTF-8_del.kmap.gz:27: syntax error syntax error in map file key bindings not changed I did see several "unknown keysym 'Omega'" (as well as 'omega') in the loadkeys output as well, but I don't see those nor the assuming/found during boot. dpkg -l console-setup reports status "ii" for package version 1.221. dpkg-reconfigure console-setup has not helped. The file has and had a very recent mtime so it doesn't seem to be a stale leftover file from before the upgrade to 12.1. Checking on the console, I do seem to have a US keyboard layout as opposed to my preferred Swedish layout. Web searches were distinctly unhelpful. Suggestions welcome. If more information would be helpful just let me know what might be needed. -- Michael Kjörling 🔗 https://michael.kjorling.se “Remember when, on the Internet, nobody cared that you were a dog?”
