Public bug reported:

I am running Ubuntu 8.10 with console-setup ver 1.25ubuntu4

Setting XKBLAYOUT="us" and XKBVARIANT="dvorak" in "$HOME/.console-setup"
and running "sudo /bin/setupcon" fails to load the dvorak keymap. The
"/etc/console-setup/boottime.kmap.gz mapping is always loaded instead.

In line 307 of /bin/setupcon the variable VARIANT is checked when I
believe XKBVARIANT ought to be. This causes all the XKB... options to be
ignored if one is using a normal "$HOME/.console-setup" configuration
rather than a "$HOME/.console-setup.VARIANT" configuration. The VARIANT
variable should only be evaluated early in the script to load the proper
configuration file.
