In fact, I'm looking at the following in debian-cd:
...
/* Used for Lenny and earlier */
console-data
console-common
console-tools
console-cyrillic
console-terminus
/* Used for Squeeze and onwards */
console-setup
pcmciautils
...
What *should* be there now, exactly? I've no idea what's needed in
terms of the fonts, console-* and kbd-* :-(
