Package: keyboard-configuration
Version: 1.134
Severity: wishlist
File: /etc/init.d/console-setup

Currently, keyboard-configuration ships the /etc/init.d/keyboard-setup
and /etc/init.d/console-setup init scripts, despite those scripts
logically belonging to the console-setup or console-setup-mini packages.
xserver-xorg-core depends on keyboard-configuration, making it
unremovable on most systems.  So, even with console-setup removed and
purged, two init scripts (and thus two shells) run at startup just to
check for /bin/setupcon.

Please consider finding a way for these scripts to not exist at all on
systems that don't have console-setup installed.  For example, could
they live in a package that console-setup and console-setup-mini depend
on, rather than keyboard-configuration?
