Package: console-setup
Version: 1.102
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch

Dear Maintainer,

  Give information about the loaded (used) font, consolemap and keymap. 
It is better to see that (e. g. in '/var/log/boot'), especially after
the installation and after each change to aid finding the cause of
unexpected behavior.

Hi!

It is customary for various commands to provide debug information only 
when requested to do so.  For example if you want setupcon to tell you 
what actual font, consolemap or keymap it has used, you can use

setupcon --verbose

(The output of this command will be somewhat improved in the next version.)

Alternatively, if for some reason you want this information always to be 
printed during the system boot, you can define the variable

VERBOSE_OUTPUT=yes

in /etc/default/console-setup or /etc/default/keyboard.
