console-setup is currently frozen because it provides a udeb. As the D-I beta2 is out and, anyway, console-setup's udeb is not used in D-I as of now, I think it's OK for it to enter testing.
Of course, better get an ACK by Otavio or Frans, just for the sake of
it.
This version should indeed bring a big usability improvement to users
of cyrillic languages in D-I lenny beta2 (console-setup is the default
console handling software for cyrillic languages):
* Support for X key types such as PC_CONTROL_LEVEL2 and PC_ALT_LEVEL2.
Never use ShiftR. Thanks to Alexander E. Patrakov, closes: #484822.
Urgency medium because #484822 is related to the default settings used
by d-i for some languages.
* Improved support for non 'KP_...' keys in the keypad block.
* console-setup-mini and udebs: fix some bugs in modifiers in
precompiled non-latin layouts
* Support for some new X key symbols (some of them spelling errors).
* ckbcomp: accept a list after virtual_modifiers
* Debconf support for grp:alt_caps_toggle, grp:lctrl_lshift_toggle,
grp:sclk_toggle, lv3:alt_switch, lv3:enter_switch, compose:lwin
* Removed debconf support for grp:alts_toggle, grp:ctrls_toggle,
grp:shifts_toggle, grp:shift_caps_toggle as it is impossible to
support them on the console.
* update Keyboard/ckb with the keyboard data of xkb-data version 1.3-1
(this syncs console-setup-mini and udebs with the main package)
* xmlreader: ignore tags languageList and countryList.
* Remove dh_installxfonts from debian/rules.
