Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

   * What led up to the situation? I used fbgrab from fbcat package and it complained about missing fgconsole (from kbd package). Strangely kbd isn't installed by default.
   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)? I search about fgconsole and turns out it comes from kbd package. I install kbd package after that.
   * What was the outcome of this action? fbcat run normally and doesn't complaint about missing fgconsole.
   * What outcome did you expect instead? fbcat will run normally.

Hi Luca,

I took the freedom to upload what I found in Git on Salsa and added the
kbd dependency to fix the bug.  My changes are pushed to Git.  If you
rather intend to do a Maintainer upload feel free to override my changes
in Git and upload directly.  That's perfectly fine for me.  My initial
motivation to look into this package were just the missing Vcs-Git field
which you had added in Git - thank you for doing so.

Kind regards
     Andreas.

We believe that the bug you reported is fixed in the latest version of
fbcat, which is due to be installed in the Debian FTP archive.

A summary of the changes between this version and the previous one is
attached.

Thank you for reporting the bug, which will now be closed.  If you
have further comments please address them to 1118053@bugs.debian.org,
and the maintainer will reopen the bug report if appropriate.
