Bug#536683: console-setup: Installation/upgrade freezes when non-standard XKBLAYOUT used
Package: console-setup
Version: 1.44
Severity: normal
Hi,
installation fails if the XKBLAYOUT (/etc/default/console-setup or
/etc/X11/xorg.conf) is set to a non-standard value (sk_tz in my case).
Process "/var/lib/dpkg/info/console-setup.config configure" starts up
too many (> 1000 per second) processes (grep, sed, sort) with no
symptoms of progress.
