Bug#759657: console-setup w/ systemd forgets font setting

[Yuri D'Elia <wavexx@thregr.org>]

Package: console-setup
Version: 1.137
Followup-For: Bug #759657

I've just experienced this bug. I've installed a fresh debian system on a new laptop (using sid) from scratch.

I've configured console-setup to use TerminusBold 16x32, and while it works just after running dpkg-reconfigure, the setting is not correctly restored after a reboot.
Due to the high resolution of the screen in this laptop, I cannot actually read anything without.
