console-setup 1.34ubuntu1 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

console-setup (1.34ubuntu1) karmic; urgency=low

  * Resynchronise with Debian. Remaining changes:
    - Use keymapper to generate decision trees for a restricted subset of
      the pc105 model.
    - 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.
    - Reset console-setup/toggle to the default if it's set to "No toggling"
      and you select a non-Latin layout.
    - Change the default font from Fixed to VGA for Lat15; while it's not
      entirely complete, it looks better and is largely good enough.
    - Run kbd_mode on each tty in ACTIVE_CONSOLES rather than on the current
      tty, since the current tty might belong to X and changing X's tty out
      of raw mode is a very bad idea.
    - Automatically save the font and keymap to /etc in
      /etc/init.d/console-setup if it isn't being run from init. Similarly,
      ensure that the font and keymap are saved to /etc during initial
      installation.
    - Set keymap and font in the initramfs if possible.
    - Set default variant for French to oss.
    - Set default for Dutch to us(intl), not just us.
    - Set default layout for Vietnam to 'us'.
    - Set default layout for Kurdish to tr(ku).
    - Fix handling of commas in layout and variant names.
    - debian/config.proto: Set sparc default model to pc105.
    - Remove 'exit 0' from the end of debian/config.proto; this will be
      sourced from the postinst in the installer, and exiting in the
      successful case means that /etc/default/console-setup never gets
      generated.
    - Stop running debconf-updatepo on clean.
    - Update for new layouts and variants for Japan, Montenegro, and Serbia,
      and migrate configuration files from the old layouts.
    - Add a "Do not configure keyboard; keep kernel keymap" model option,
      preseedable by console-setup/modelcode=SKIP.
    - Drop the layout/variant priority to high on fresh installs.
    - Honour OVERRIDE_ALLOW_PRESEEDING environment variable when deciding
      whether to allow preseeding, which is ordinarily only allowed in d-i.
    - If console-setup/layoutcode is preseeded but not marked as seen, then
      set the default layout but don't lower the layout question priority or
      preseed console-setup/ask_detect.
    - Treat the Kazakhstan layout (kz) as non-Latin.

    upgrade.  Thanks to Osamu Aoki, closes: #526862.  Urgency set to
    medium because of this grave bug.
  * Make console-setup-mini to provide console-setup (in order to make it
    installable together with X).
  * Correction in template file: Control+period for Compose instead of
    Alt+period.  Thanks to Kurt Roeckx, closes: #524236.

  [ Frans Pop ]
  * Change default keyboard layout for Netherlands (NL) to us as the Dutch
    keyboard layout is only rarely used. This is in line with the existing
    default in console-data.

  [ Anton Zinoviev ]
  * Do not combine ctrll with plain when the layout contains unresolved
    NoSymbol.  Thanks to Steve Cotton, closes: #523559.

    to Josselin Mouette, closes: #523487.
  * Use the same mappings for (Alt\+|Control\+|AltGr\+|Shift\+)*F[0-9]+ as

console-setup (1.30) unstable; urgency=low

  [ Anton Zinoviev ]
  * Support for spaces in model, layouts, variants or options.  Thanks to
    Celejar (closes: #521122).
  * In Debconf properly regard two-layout combinations with non-empty
    variant of the first layout as unsupported.

  [ Debconf translations ]
  * Finish.
  * Swedish (closes: #520623)

console-setup (1.29) unstable; urgency=low

  [ Anton Zinoviev ]
  * Better Arabic letters for VGA16 fonts.  Thanks to Ahmed El-Mahmoudy,
    closes: #485921.
  * I was suggested to use VGA font face instead of Terminus by
    default. Unfortunately in most cases VGA is incomplete so in these
    cases I used Fixed.  I don't think Fixed is better choice than
    Terminus so feel free to revert the defaults back to Terminus, they
    are in debian/config.proto around line 1770.  Thanks to Josh Triplett,
    closes: #497331.
  * Give VoidSymbol to plain or shifted PrintScreen key.  Patch provided
    by Colin Watson.  Thanks to Jason Spiro, closes: #501654.
  * Do not use Shift_Lock instead of Caps_Lock.  Use CtrlL_Lock for
    keymaps that need this.  Closes: #514212.  The idea was given by
    Samuel Thibault.  He also provided a patch for proper locale-based
    capitalization of the letters.
  * Do not ignore XF86_Switch_VT_* xkeysyms, closes: #514537.   Patch
    provided by Samuel Thibault.
  * Recognise the braille keys, closes: #514539.  Patch provided by Samuel
    Thibault.
  * Allow to specify more than one font in the configuration file in
    FONT=...  Thanks to Samuel Thibault, closes: #508862.
  * On first install read defaults for the keyboard layout from
    /etc/X11/xorg.conf.  Julien Cristau provided the script parsing
    xorg.conf. Closes: #515685.
  * Save cached keymap in /etc/console-setup/cached.kmap.gz if possible.
    Thanks to Frédéric Boiteux, closes: #509117.
  * Fix a bug: empty string as keyboard model in the config file when the
    user selects the default keyboard model.
  * Do not display error template when debconf doesn't support the layout in
    the config file.  Ask the user if the settings must be preserved.
    Debconf questions when the default values for layout or options
    (coming most likely from xorg.conf) are not supported.

  [ Colin Watson ]
  * Merge from Ubuntu:
    - Fix property counts in Goha and legacy BDF fonts.
    - Fix keymap reduction not to try to express keymap A in terms of keymap
      B when B includes keys not mapped by A.
    - If reading a user configuration file, disable --save, and don't use
      /etc/console-setup/cached.kmap.gz; using the cached file tends to
      cause confusion here since the maintainer scripts and init scripts are
      expecting that to correspond to the main configuration (LP: #332728).
    - Raise priority to critical for questions preseeded with a nonexistent
      code (LP: #328078).
  * Sort the null variant to the top of the choices list rather than to the
    bottom.
  * Make %.ekmap target depend on MyKeyboardNames.pl.
  * Use printf rather than /bin/echo in setupcon; it's typically a shell
    builtin and is therefore faster.

  [ Christian Perrier ]

    english team as part of the Smith review project. Closes: #520375
