For now, we don't have the choice whether to keep or not the font we have built in the kernel, systemd force setting a new font when running vconsole-setup. This patch allows disabling this by setting SKIP_FONT_SETTING to yes in /etc/vconsole.conf or by passing vconsole.skipfontsetting=yes to kernel cmdline.

I think it would be nicer to just consider an empty font assignment a request to turn this off.
Created attachment 45420 [details] [review] Allow skipping font setting True. Really better like this
Created attachment 45421 [details] [review] Allow skipping font setting Ok, this actually didn't work... Maybe setting the consolefont to none like this to disable it would be a good workaround ?
Created attachment 45428 [details] [review] Don't force a default font Ok, I maybe didn't understood what you really wanted to say, here is a patch not to force the default font in case no font is specified
Created attachment 45440 [details] [review] Don't force a default font Missed that bit ...
Applied a different fix now to git. Just create /etc/vconsole with this content: KEYMAP= FONT= and system will leave the kernel map/font enabled.
