Title:
  init scripts don't set console fonts

Status in console-setup package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  1) lsb_release -rd
  Description:	Ubuntu 15.10
  Release:	15.10

  2) apt-cache policy keyboard-configuration
  keyboard-configuration:
    Installed: 1.108ubuntu9
    Candidate: 1.108ubuntu9
    Version table:
   *** 1.108ubuntu9 0
          500 http://ru.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ wily/main amd64 Packages
          100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

  3) I expected to have cyrillic font for consoles (/dev/tty[1-6]) after
  sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-setup
  and reboot

  4) I have cyrrilic font until I reboot. After reboot I have black boxes instead cyrillic chars.
  If I do:
  setfont /etc/console-setup/Uni2-TerminusBold16.psf.gz
  then I have cyrrilic font in current console 

  I found that these scripts
  /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/init-top/console_setup
  /lib/udev/console-setup-tty
  cannot properly set console fonts.
  They don't recognize option CODESET="guess" and FONTSIZE="*x*" and check if exist only *.psf file, but we have *.psf.gz

  I get part of code from /bin/setupcon and paste it in
  /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/init-top/console_setup
  /lib/udev/console-setup-tty
  and add extra test for psf.gz and acm.gz files
