Details

Description:
build function uses "file" variable to store the FONT but get_decompressor function expects it in "f" variable.

Additional info:
- core/mkinitcpio 16-2
- core/systemd 208-10
- community/terminus-font 4.38-3

Steps to reproduce:
Add sd-vconsole to the list of hooks in mkinitcpio conf and generate initramfs image.
The console font is missing the generated image.
   mkinitcpio-sd.conf (2.5 KiB)
   vconsole.conf (0 KiB)
   mkinitcpio.verbose.output.txt (22.8 KiB)
   lsinitcpio.list.contents.outp... (15.5 KiB)
   sd-vconsole.patch (0.8 KiB)
This task depends upon
