Description William Hubbs gentoo-dev 2013-05-05 19:51:48 UTC
The external setfont, which is part of sys-apps/kbd, provides the -u and
-O options, which OpenRC uses to set unicode fonts as well as store
fonts for usage during early boot. However, these options are not
supported by the busybox internal setfont command. Can you please look
into adding them?

Thanks,

William

Is there an upstream bug for this (feature addition)? Couldn't find one.
Comment 2 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2015-12-16 20:18:00 UTC
i've moved this upstream:
https://bugs.busybox.net/show_bug.cgi?id=8526  add unicode support (-u)
https://bugs.busybox.net/show_bug.cgi?id=8531  add output support (-o/-O)

This could use the UPSTREAM keyword.
