Bug#562686: [console-setup] Silently breaks console-tools



Package: console-setup
Version: 1.50
Severity: important

Console-setup silently breaks console-tools. Yes, you've added a
paragraph in README.Debian, but I think that simply not enough.
Console-setup should detect that console-tools is installed and when
started should echo something like "console-tools detected, its settings
will be overridden" or similar. Also during installation you should show
this information to the user. I lost almost an hour today on this so
I'll set the severity to important.

Regards,
Vedran
