[Bug 1746579] Re: A boxes instead of a Cyrillic chars in VTs

[Evgeniy Yanyuk]

Ok, obviously /scripts/init-top/console_setup doesn't work. I'll try to
setup up an Ukranian version. Please, share your current
/boot/initrd.img

Title:
  A boxes instead of a Cyrillic chars in VTs

Status in console-setup package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  $ lsb_release -rd
  Description:    Ubuntu Bionic Beaver (development branch)
  Release:        18.04

  $ apt-cache policy keyboard-configuration

  I expected to have cyrillic fonts in any of six VTs, /dev/tty[1-6],
  but it shows boxes instead of them. Please, see screen shot in
  attachment.

  It's very likely that this is an old bug that was fixed earlier but it
  appeared it 18.04 dev again. Here it is:
