[Pkg-kbd-devel] Bug#420802: console-setup: Default for console-setup/codeset not in Choices

[Colin Watson]

Package: console-setup
Version: 1.15
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

The Default: for console-setup/codeset is not one of the values in the
Choices: field. This looks unintentional, and confuses debconf into
using an incorrect default. Furthermore, cdebconf at least gets very
confused by what the .config script does in response to this (see
https://launchpad.net/bugs/84401), the fix for which ultimately comes
down to avoiding db_defaulting console-setup/codeset to the empty string
(which is best avoided anyway). Patch for both problems attached.

Thanks,
