This part is the key information. I had a look, and the problem is
that the keyboard-setup init.d script state that it require udev,
while the package do not depend on udev. As udev is supposed to be
optional, I believe the correct fix is for the keyboard-setup init.d
nscript to only have an optional dependency on udev.
Thank you for bringing this up.
I believe this patch will solve the issue, by moving udev from the
scripts required by keyboard-setup, to the scripts keyboard-setup
should start after if present.
