Err, because it is fixed.  We don't keep all the 600 000 bugs on the
summary pages, that'd be unreadable.

I don't see how that bug relates to yours.

I can see this in console-setup-mini's /bin/setup:

if \
[ "$VARIANT" = '' ] \
&& which gzip >/dev/null \
&& [ -d /usr/share/X11/xkb ] # /usr is mounted
then
if \
[ ! -f /etc/console-setup/cached.kmap.gz ] \
|| [ /etc/console-setup/cached.kmap.gz \
etc.

setupcon checks for /usr/share/X11/xkb, but console-setup-mini doesn't
depend on xkb-data, which provides that directory.  Is that on purpose?
If so, console-setup-mini should at least recommend it, to get it
working by default.
