other data files are not available (LP: #83487).

* Resynchronise with Debian. Remaining changes:

    console-setup) is present.
  - Move console-screen.kbd.sh to rcS/S90.
  - Add setfont, kbd_mode, and loadkeys to initramfs for console-setup.

* Add me to uploaders
* Add console-setup as an alternative in the dependencies on
  console-common and console-data. Thanks to Martin-Éric Racine,
  closes: #398439.
* Search for an installed font in unicode_start since now LatArCyrHeb-16
  may not be installed.
* Some changes in /etc/init.d/console_screen.kbd.sh:
  - run unicode_{start,stop} before setfont. Give a font argument to
    unicode_start so the font doesn't change twice. Thanks to Mattia,
    closes: #421390;
  - fix the per-VC font load;
  - (re)enable the per-VC ACM load;
  - for consistency use CONSOLE_MAP_vcN instead of APP_CHARSET_MAP_vcN
    and FONT_MAP_vcN instead of CONSOLE_MAP_vcN;
  - support also the config variables in console-tools style
    (APP_CHARSET_MAP, SCREEN_FONT, SCREEN_FONT_MAP);
  - do not run unicode_start if CONSOLE_MAP (or CONSOLE_MAP_vcN) is defined;
  - run unicode_start/unicode_stop only on consoles where we load a font;
  - do not use static paths such as /usr/bin/setfont;
  - add description and short description in the LSB header.
* Use more substantial example for /etc/kbd/config based on the config
  file of console-tools. Thanks to Jonny, closes: #410553.
* Install kbd_mode and setfont in /bin rather than in /usr/bin so the
  administrator be able to set up the font in case of emergency and use
  the keyboard in utf-8 mode.
* Add an udeb with loadkeys and kbd_mode. A patch was provided by Frans
  Pop and was modified to give a -Os option to the compiler.

* debian/rules: Drop bashisms. Closes: #379500 Thanks Julien Danjou

* debian/control: Drop versioned dependencies against dpkg and sysvinit,
  these ttansitions are over for a long time. As these packages are of
  priority required, these dependencies can be removed.
  Closes: #386131 Thanks martin f krafft

* debian/control: console-data in oldstable satisfies Recommends, so
  remove this version too.

* debian/console-screen.kbd.sh: Add lsb logging, see #384785

6. By Scott James Remnant (Canonical) on 2006-08-31

* Remove unnecessary dependency on sysvinit.
* Correct bogus use of == in clean rule.

5. By Denis Barbier on 2006-03-29

* debian/patches/read_keymaps_fmt.diff: When -m flag is set, do not try to
  open a file descriptor on the console so that loadkeys -m can be used
  under X. See #341956.

* debian/patches/read_keymaps_fmt.diff: Let add_number() return its
  argument if it corresponds to an unknown symbol, because Unicode symbols
  are not always defined (and may appear within Unicode private range,
  anyway). See #312844.

* debian/patches/braille.diff: New patch, to add braille keysyms, introduced
  in Linux 2.6.17-rc1. Closes: #360813 Thanks Samuel Thibault

  add myself to Uploaders.

* debian/console-screen.kbd.sh: Check for locale variables in both files
  /etc/environment and /etc/default/locale.

* Move openvt and chvt into /bin. Closes: #320571 Thanks Tim Connors

* Apply changes from console-tools:
  + debian/console-screen.kbd.sh:
    - Include LSB-formatted Init dependency info
    - Remove all exit statements from /etc/init.d/console-screen.kbd.sh.
    - Ensure the correct font, unicode_mode are set for all VTs.
    - Make vcstime work under udev.

debian/patches/fedora-kbd-1.12-alias.patch: there are some C aliasing
violations, and setfont misbehaves in 1.12-12 because it has been
compiled with GCC 4 whereas prior versions were compiled with GCC 3.
Thanks Emanuele Rocca for this report, and Fedora folks for this patch.
Closes: Bug#322165
