Binary package hint: console-setup

System is Xen/xVM domU amd64 lucid, minimal build, no X11.

# lsb_release -rd
Description:    Ubuntu lucid (development branch)
Release:        10.04
# apt-cache policy console-setup
console-setup:
  Installed: 1.34ubuntu14
  Candidate: 1.34ubuntu14
  Version table:

Recently did an aptitude upgrade, and the install hung on installation of 
console-setup.

Did a pstree, and found it seemed to be hung calling plymouth.  Killed
plymouth process, and install seemed to complete.

However, if I do an aptitude reinstall console-setup, I get the same
issue.

Same if I run from hvc0 or pts/n.
