Bug#347696: console-terminus: Font name changes will break D-I beta1
Package: console-terminus
Version: 4.16-1
Severity: normal
This bug is more or less a fake bug.
The name changes that went into console-terminus will break Debian Installer
for languages that use console-terminus currently: Bosnian, Kurdish,
Romanian and Turkish.
As a consequence, this bug is here to prevent console-terminus entering
testing until the D-I team officially declares Etch beta1 as unsupported.
This bug will be cloned for localechooser, which will also need changes to
reflect the new names.
PS: thankfully I have console-terminus installed on my own system and I
noticed the change. Please think about coordinating with the D-I team in the
future for such releases. Not saying that the name change wasn't right: the
new names are a lot clearer.
