Today I uploaded a new version of console-cyrillic where I changed the
Debconf part in the following way.
When the package is not installed for first time, for example when it
is upgraded or when it was removed (but not purged) then it asks the
questions the same way as now.
But when the package is installed for first time (probably by the
debian-installer) then it uses the LANG environment variable in order to
compute better default values for keyboard, font and encoding and asks
the corresponding questions with smaller priority. For example when
console-cyrillic is installed with LANG=uk_UA there will be only two
questions - about the keys to use as Cyr/Lat toggler and switcher. (The
terminology comes from XFree: Shift switches, Caps Lock toggles.)
