Severity: important
Tags: patch l10n d-i
As explained in #276548 installing the keymap to /target when console is
in the unicode mode produces some side effects which directly effect
the Turkish keyboard. Could you please apply the patch attached which
incorporates a workaround for #276548?
Changelog:
* As a workaround to #276548, temporarily switch to ascii mode
before installing the Turkish keymap.
This patch includes a simple code change in kbd-mode which simplifies
similar workarounds. I've tested it enough and observed that it works.
No other keymaps other than Turkish will be affected by this patch.
Regards,
