[Bug 1569964] Re: On the console block characters are shown instead of pretty quotes

[Benno Schulenberg]

See https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/console-
setup/+bug/657551/comments/23 .

The recipe more explicitly:

sudo cp /usr/share/consolefonts/Uni2-Fixed16.psf.gz /etc/console-setup/
sudo gunzip etc/console-setup/Uni2-Fixed16.psf.gz
sudo sed -i 's:^CODESET=.*:CODESET="Uni2":' /etc/default/console-setup

And this comment gives, I think, a hint at the proper solution:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/debian-installer/+bug/609775/comments/4 --
that is: the installer should figure out which consolefont to install.

Title:
  On the console block characters are shown instead of pretty quotes

Status in nano package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I'm using Ubuntu 16.04 dev with nano 2.5.3-2 and on going to the
  console and setting LANG to de_DE.UTF-8 I'm noticing that changing an
  existing file with nano and aborting the changes with CTRL + X does
  show before and after the word "Nein" a black square instead of the
  characters „ and “ as they are shown on a terminal.
