Description:
When the consolefont hook is included in /etc/mkinitcpio.conf and mkinitcpio is run, it returns the following warning message:
consolefont: no font found in configuration

This occurs because /usr/lib/initcpio/install/consolefont references the non-existent $CONSOLEFONT variable, instead of the $FONT variable provided by vconsole.conf.

The attached patch fixes this, and also corrects an erroneous reference to locale.conf in the help() function.

Additional info:
* mkinitcpio 0.12.0-1


Steps to reproduce:
Set the FONT variable in /etc/vconsole.conf, include the consolefont hook in /etc/mkinitcpio.conf, run mkinitcpio.
   consolefont.diff (1.2 KiB)
