The integration should be into /etc/init.d/kbdcontrol,
by adding two targets, like keymap-native and keymap-debian.
May be it can be run even semi-automatically, by
detecting whether the /etc/inittab uses cons25 or cons25-debian
and noop or alter keymap.
Yes, I like the latter (auto detection) part. Another solution could be a
debconf question in kbdcontrol (though it might be too late for this).
Attached is the proposed new /etc/init.d/kbdcontrol.
The current default is
FLAVOUR=auto
Should be the default "auto" or "native" ?
Is there still a time to do freebsd-utils upload ?
The only change against current one would be the new
/etc/init.d/kbdcontrol script.
Cheers
