kbd 2.6.0 Release Notes
-------------------------
The kbd-2.6.0 is available at
https://mirrors.edge.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/kbd/kbd-2.6.0.tar.gz
https://mirrors.edge.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/kbd/kbd-2.6.0.tar.xz

Changes
-------
libkfont:
* Leverage KD_FONT_OP_GET/SET_TALL font operations. The new
KD_FONT_OP_GET/SET_TALL font operations allow to load fonts taller
than 32 pixels by dropping the VGA-specific vertical pitch limitation
(requires kernel 6.2 or later).
* Use threadsafe strtok_r.
* Increase soname version.
setvtrgb:
* Fix read from pipe. The pipe is not rewindable, but we don't really
need to rewind() but we need to unread one character.
keymaps:
* i386/dvorak/dvorak-de.map: Add dvorak-de.map from console-data.
* i386/qwerty/is-latin1.map: the circumflex should also be available in
its original level-3 position.
* i386/qwerty/la-latin1.map: Convert the characters expressed in Latin-1
to the named constants, to ease up transition to Unicode.
* pine/en.map: New version of pinephone keyboard map file.
unimaps:
* Add mapping for U+25CF. The unicode maps in font files like
eurlatgr.psfu and cp850-8x16.psfu have an entry for U+25CF, but the
plaintext unimap files do not.
tests:
* Use strace to track syscalls. Now strace is powerful enough to show
ioctls specific to console configuration.
po:
* Update translations (from translationproject.org).
