Severity: important
I got a udeb (skolelinux-config-udeb) loading some default values into
debconf to get the installation to continue automatically. This
package does the following in it's postinst script:
#! /bin/sh
. /usr/share/debconf/confmodule
[...]
layout="[no-latin1] Norwegian"
[...]
db_set console-data/keymap/ps2 "$layout"
When this is executed before kbd-chooser is executed, kbd-chooser
segfaults at startup.
If I choose kbd-chooser from the menu before installing
skolelinux-config-uden, it works just fine. But if I execute it after
the configuration is loaded, it crashes.

This problem is no longer present. I can set the value and
kbd-chooser do not segfault any more. I also discovered that there is
no need to set the value any more, as kbd-chooser picks the correct
keyboard based on the locale value from languagechooser.
