Title:
  dpkg-reconfigure console-setup changes do not apply after reboot.

Status in console-setup package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I boot Ubuntu 18.04.4 in mode 3 (console mode) and run `sudo dpkg-
  reconfigure console-setup` and select UTF-8 -> Latin1 and Latin5 ->
  Terminus -> 10x20. After that the console immediately switches to this
  font and font size. And it also prints the following message:

  update-initramfs: deferring update (trigger activated)
  Processing triggers for initramfs-tools (0.130ubuntu3.9) ...
  update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-4.15.0-76-generic

  After that I reboot into mode 3 again but the font and the font size
  don't get applied. I have to manually run `sudo setupcon -v -f` for my
  changes to take effect after a reboot.

  This looks to be a bug in `dpkg-reconfigure console-setup`.
