[Pkg-kbd-devel] Bug#421796: after "dpkg-reconfigure console-setup" CTRL-INS/SHIFT-INS cut/paste doesn't work in mc

[Karsten Hilbert]

Package: console-setup
Version: 1.15
Severity: normal
Tags: l10n

After boot (or after I run dpkg-reconfigure console-setup) I cannot use
the CTRL-INS/SHIFT-INS combination for cut-and-paste anymore (for
example in midnight commander).

One data point might be that it works after running dpkg-reconfigure
console-data -- which, however, leaves me without umlauts äüö ...

I really like the Terminus font which I cannot select from console-data
so that's why I need the console-setup.

It'd be *really* helpful if the integration between console-data/
console-setup and similar packages got worked out better. I know it is
work that doesn't get done by itself..

Thanks,
Karsten
