Just to confirm this still happens with Debian 7.0:

root@proxmox6:~# apt-cache policy console-tools
console-tools:
  Installed: 1:0.2.3dbs-70
  Candidate: 1:0.2.3dbs-70
  Version table:
 *** 1:0.2.3dbs-70 0
        500 http://mirror.aarnet.edu.au/pub/debian/ wheezy/main amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
     1:0.2.3dbs-69.1 0
        500 http://mirror.aarnet.edu.au/pub/debian/ squeeze/main amd64 Packages


As mentioned by Andreas installing console-setup works around
this issue:

console-setup:
  Installed: 1.88
  Candidate: 1.88
  Version table:
 *** 1.88 0
        500 http://mirror.aarnet.edu.au/pub/debian/ wheezy/main amd64 Packages
