Mmm, AIUI, at the point of configuring the keyboard, no additional udebs have been extracted. Reading lowmem scripts tells me that it saves memory by just dropping files, we could just do the same with the translations. As for the size of boot floppies, the file can be in a separated udeb that is not included in them.

That means that the console-setup deb would have to pre-depend on the deb containing the translations. (No, we can not just use usual templates, as we want to be able to shuffle keyboard proposals at will). Or we decide to not care about having a 1MB console-setup.config (maybe we can manage to ship it compressed and extract it on the fly) Samuel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-boot-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
