Proposed changes to console-data

[Alastair McKinstry <mckinstry@computer.org>]

Hi,

The following changes are in console-data SVN repository:

console-data (2002.12.04dbs-45sarge2) UNRELEASED; urgency=low

  * Translations:
    - Added Macedonian (mk) by Georgi Stanojevski
    - Corrected encoding error in French. Closes: #277569
  * Select br-abnt2 as the default Brazilian keymap. Closes: #275273.
  * Added Lithuanian keymap to console-keymaps-at, console-keymaps-acorn
    for debian-installer. Closes: #275087.
  * Fixed dangling symlink in console-keymaps-at; thanks to Recai Oktas.
    Closes: #262693.

In addition, I propose to add the following patches for new keymaps
which are in the BTS:

#267380 : Persian/Iranian keymap
#267451 : Arabic
#273461 : Greek UTF-8

To avoid problems with increasing d-i size, and because there isn't time
to translate them, they would go into the 'extended' console-data set
only, not into console-keymaps-at for d-i.

console-data can be built quickly (its arch:any) but it impacts d-i,
so the release managers have the final say -- is it too late to make
these changes?
