And now, due to changes in our migration software, this issue has caused 
console-setup to be blocked for 34 days already [1]:
uninstallable on arch amd64, not running autopkgtest there

I'll hint it through now, but it would be nicer if console-setup-freebsd 
would be dropped next time (as it would ensure src:console-setup gets 
the normal autopkgtest treatment).
