Changelog
console-setup (1.111) unstable; urgency=low
[ Anton Zinoviev ]
* setupcon --setup-dir:
- generate commands which do not require gzip in initrd;
- simplify the code by more general handling of special shell symbols
in command arguments.
- do not remove temporary files before the script exits so that the
code of --setup-dir is able to use a keymap stored in a termporary file;
* Give prefix cached_ to files created in /etc/console-setup. Remove
such files when console-setup or console-setup-mini are removed or
purged and /bin/setupcon doesn't exist. Thanks to Andreas Beckmann
and all contributors to the bug report. Closes: #672160. Files
created by older versions of the package will not be removed.
* ckbcomp: change the approximation method for non-defined symbols
during the flattening phase. This is a dangerous change, let's hope
I've done it right. Thanks to Artem Rusanov for the informative bug
report, closes: #722566.
* bdf2psf: allow omited trailing zero bytes in the BITMAP part of a BDF
character definition. Thanks to Ben Harris for the bug report and the
patch, closes: #730430.
* setupcon:
- improve the output of setupcon --verbose;
- run printf '\033%%@' and printf '\033%%G' in background. I suppose
this closes: #678897, #705971. Thanks to Matteo Croce,
John A. Livingston, Alban Browaeys, Stefano Forli,
John D. Hendrickson, Sara Darnell, Hendrik Bijlsma and
Daniele Di Domizio;
- issue warnings about /etc being mounted read-only only if it actually
needs to write something there. Thanks to Michael Tokarev,
closes: #691060;
- Fix bugs related to setupcon VARIANT. Thanks to Trent W. Buck,
closes: #743476.
* Mark all packages as "Multi-Arch: foreign". Thanks to Guillem Jover
and Noel David Torres TaƱo, closes: #693922.
* keyboard.5: add https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/X_KeyBoard_extension
as another source for further information.
* setupcon.1: document the options --save-keyboard and --setup-dir to be
used by initrd builders.
* Use which instead of type in the config scripts to avoid lintian warnings.
