In the bug report, you wrote: > Displaying this question is undesired as D-I > will itself install the correct keymap based on keymap selection earlier > in the installation. If the keymap has already been installed earlier in the installation, why can't console-* notice that there is a keymap installed, and skip asking about it? Why do we need a separate way to communicate this to console-* at all? If some other communication than creating the keymap file is needed for reasons I don't understand, creating a file not in /tmp seems very doable. The other option would be debconf preseeding, and preseeding console-data/keymap/policy seen should avoid the question. And would be less ugly than a flag file. -- see shy jo
