Bug#833053: Syntax error in the script that setupcon outputs

[Jonny <jonny@csc.jp>]

Package: console-setup
Version: 1.148

Hi,

if you choose "Do not change the boot/kernel font" in debconf questions '"VGA" 
has a traditional appearance and has medium coverage of ...', and outputs the 
"/etc/console-setup/cached_setup_font.sh" such as the following.

#!/bin/sh



if ls /dev/fb* >/dev/null 2>/dev/null; then
    for i in /dev/vcs[0-9]*; do
        {

        } < /dev/tty${i#/dev/vcs} > /dev/tty${i#/dev/vcs}
    done
fi

mkdir -p /run/console-setup
> /run/console-setup/font-loaded
for i in /dev/vcs[0-9]*; do
    {
printf '\033%%G'
    } < /dev/tty${i#/dev/vcs} > /dev/tty${i#/dev/vcs}
done

This script Line 9 is the syntax error.
