This is wrong. Console-setup can not configure the console without kbd or console-tools. Isn't the installer the program that makes the decision whether kbd or console-tools has to be installed? > Would it be better in your opinion to force installation of Recommends for > console-setup? What exactly is the difference for users? I am not sure I understand. I can make c-s to depend on kbd or console-tools. Should I? In the past c-s used strong dependency but I changed it to only recommends because of request by porters working on architectures which do not have kbd or console-tools (i.e. BSD). This was before the split of c-s. Now with the new package keyboard-configuration I think I can use again dependency if you want.
