Edit: /usr/share/doc/kbd/README.Debian (908B)
Only binary executable commands are included in the kbd Debian binary package.
Support for console keymaps and fonts requires you to install other packages.
* console-setup (Current default choice)
* console-data (Previous default choice)
* console-cyrillic (Special purpose)
* console-braille (Special purpose)
...
The console-setup package unifies the keyboard configuration for the Linux
console and the X Window System. Its installation time dialogue can be run
again as follows:
# dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration
# dpkg-reconfigure console-setup
The console-data package only supports the Linux console. Its installation
time dialogue can be run again as follows:
# dpkg-reconfigure console-data
console-data users may also find the install-keymap(8) utility useful for
making a keymap available early in the boot process. It is provided in the
console-common package.
