+CHANGES WITH 194:
+
+ * If /etc/vconsole.conf is non-existent or empty we will no
+ longer load any console font or key map at boot by
+ default. Instead the kernel defaults will be left
+ intact. This is definitely the right thing to do, as no
+ configuration should mean no configuration, and hard-coding
+ font names that are different on all archs is probably a bad
+ idea. Also, the kernel default key map and font should be
+ good enough for most cases anyway, and mostly identical to
+ the userspace fonts/key maps we previously overloaded them
+ with. If distributions want to continue to default to a
+ non-kernel font or key map they should ship a default
+ /etc/vconsole.conf with the appropriate contents.
