console-setup 1.222ubuntu1 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

console-setup (1.222ubuntu1) mantic; urgency=medium

  * Merge with Debian unstable (LP: #2025363). Remaining changes:
    - debian/clean: Delete Keyboard/tree-keymaps/ on clean
    - Add an apport hook
    - If the locale is C during configuration, only set CHARMAP to ISO-8859-15
      on kFreeBSD; otherwise restore the previous behaviour from before the
      kFreeBSD port of using UTF-8 in that case.
    - Do not set default FONTFACE or FONTSIZE for Lat15, kernel has built-in
      Terminus font, at multitiple sizes, and it correctly selects low/high
      dpi font size, based on screen resolution.
    - Set keymap and font in the initramfs if possible and sensible
      debian/vtrgb, debian/vtrgb.vga, debian/console-setup-linux.setvtrgb.service,
      debian/rules, debian/console-setup-linux.{postinst, prerm}: use Ubuntu's
      virtual terminal color scheme by default, with a VGA color scheme available
      as an alternative.
    - Handle unattended upgrades without breaking plymouth when updating
      console fonts.
    - Tolerate absence of setupcon in postinst scripts. Should be fixed by
      refactoring to not have a keyboard-configuration package that needs to
      call setupcon without depending on it.
    - Don't copy keyboard-configuration questions to /target in OEM mode.
      oem-config will ask them later, and copying these confuses it.
    - Added templates for keyboard detection
    - debian/control: drop freebsd-specific packages
    - If the detect-keyboard debconf plugin is available
      (cdebconf-newt-detect-keys in the installer), then offer to use it to
      detect the keyboard layout.
    - keyboard-configuration.config: While sourcing config files to re-seed
      debconf, treat missing XKBOPTIONS as empty.
    - Fix default keyboard selection for language/country combinations
      lacking a proper combined locale.
    - debian/keyboard-configuration.config: lower the priority for the layout
      question.
    - Map ppc64el/* to XKBMODEL=pc105
    - Set default for Dutch to us(intl), not just us.
    - Set default layout for Kurdish to tr(ku)
    - Set default layout for Vietnam to 'us'
    - debian/keyboard-configuration.config: change back the french default layout to
      be fr+oss and not fr+latin9
    - debian/keyboard-configuration.config: Drop the xkb-keymap bits once
      again as we're not ready for those yet, as it's currently causing an
      invalid default layout in the installer.
    - keyboard-configuration.{config,templates}: There is no good default
      for layout toggling, stop pretending there is.  Console users can set
      one with dpkg-reconfigure or editing /etc/defaults/keyboard
    - keyboard_present.sh: Quiet config/postinst when we have no USB devices
    - debian/preprocessor: revert the removal of keyboard names (for size) of
      console-setup-udeb: we do need those, since we don't use the simplified
      xkb-keymap template from Debian just yet: this way we can still show
      country/language names when selecting a keyboard, layout or variant
    - debian/rules: revert hard-coding of a list of "debconf-selectable"
      layouts for the udebs, since we don't use this debconf question in Ubuntu
      and all layouts are selectable.
    - Make COPYRIGHT a symlink to debian/copyright
    - Don't cat over the keymaps; they're already moved to the right place.
    - Add Keyboard/Makefile rule to build pc105.tree
    - Include pc105.tree for ubiquity; make sure it gets built.
    - debian/control: Build depend on keymapper
    - Make sure we give a meaningful name to ch layouts: "Switzerland" instead
      of "German (Switzerland), since it includes French too.
    - Keyboard/Makefile: make sure KeyboardNames.pl is built with accurate data
      from xkb-data.
    - xmlreader, KeyboardNames.pl: Added model entry to skip model selection
    - Fix command injection in ckbcomp
    - Generate a locale locally for translating keyboard names in
      kbdnames-maker.
    - setupcon:
      - use only /run for tempfiles with /tmp as a non-root fallback.
      - handle compressed console maps and font files.
      - Map XKBMODEL=SKIP to '' for compatibility with existing
        configs.
      - the variables are taken from a config file which, if changed,
        invalidates the cache.
      - there is only ever one keyboard map per system.
      - the system should not have to resolve filenames to find the keymap
        cache on boot.
      - Explicitly exit 0, so that postinsts don't fail in the event that
        loadkeys can't find a console.
    - Add noudeb build profile
  - Remove obsoleted Vcs-Bzr field

console-setup (1.222) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Team upload
  * New no-change upload, since the NMU failed to build
    - I suspect the '+nmu1' in the version string has something to do
      with it. Also the BTS seems to not understand that version string,
      so again: closes: #1038759, #1038729 .

console-setup (1.221+nmu1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Non-maintainer upload
  * No-change upload to build against xkb-data 2.38-2
    (merge request !19, closes: #1038759, #1038729)

bdf2psf: font converter to generate console fonts from BDF source fonts

 This package provides a command-line converter that can be used in
 scripts to build console fonts from BDF sources automatically. The
 converter comes with a collection of font encodings that cover many
 of the world's languages. The output font can use a different
 character encoding from the input. When the source font does not
 define a glyph for a particular symbol in the encoding table, that
 glyph position in the console font is not wasted but used for another
 symbol.
 .
 When deciding about the position in the font for a particular glyph,
 the converter takes into account that in text video modes the video
 adapter copies the eighth column of the glyph matrix of symbols
 positioned in the pseudographic area to the ninth column. In order to
 create fonts for text video modes, the width of the glyph matrix of
 the source BDF font should be seven, eight, or nine pixels; otherwise the
 converter creates fonts suitable for framebuffer only.

console-setup: console font and keymap setup program

 This package provides the console with the same keyboard
 configuration scheme as the X Window System. As a result, there is no
 need to duplicate or change the keyboard files just to make simple
 customizations such as the use of dead keys, the key functioning as
 AltGr or Compose key, the key(s) to switch between Latin and
 non-Latin mode, etc.
 .
 The package also installs console fonts supporting many of the
 world's languages. It provides an unified set of font faces - the
 classic VGA, the simplistic Fixed, and the cleaned Terminus,
 TerminusBold and TerminusBoldVGA.

console-setup-linux: Linux specific part of console-setup

 This package includes fonts in psf format and definitions of various
 8-bit charmaps.

console-setup-mini: console font and keymap setup program - reduced version for Linux

 This package provides the console with the same keyboard
 configuration scheme as the X Window System. As a result, there is no
 need to duplicate or change the keyboard files just to make simple
 customizations such as the use of dead keys, the key functioning as
 AltGr or Compose key, the key(s) to switch between Latin and
 non-Latin mode, etc.
 .
 This package can be useful for handhelds or other devices with small
 storage space.

keyboard-configuration: system-wide keyboard preferences

 This package maintains the keyboard preferences in
 /etc/default/keyboard. Other packages can use the information
 provided by this package in order to configure the keyboard on the
 console or in X Window.
