Arch Linux

The handy little tool '/bin/km' as supplied on the 0.8 Alpha isos,
used to choose keymap and a console font with a GUI, uses a method
to scan for fonts that is unsuitable in it's current state.
Line 37 of the script contains the following code:

for i in `find $BASEDIR/consolefonts -follow -name "*.gz" | sed '|^.*/||g' | sort`; do

Besides of -follow being marked as deprecated in favor of -L, the
`find` command used here also searches subdirectories of the "consolefonts"
directory. Unfortunately, there's a directory called "partialfonts" below
that is also searched because of this, containing a variety of fonts
that appear later in the menu, but are not properly loaded since the call to
setfont looks like this in lines 54 and 56:

setfont $BASEDIR/consolefonts/$font [...]

To reproduce this error, just run 'km', skip the keymap chooser, and then
choose one of the presented fonts prefixed with '8859-1' and the like, which
are contained in the partialfonts subdir.

Fix considerations:
It's probably enough to just add '-maxdepth 1' to the find command line to prevent
checking the subdirectories and presenting choices that aren't sensible anyway.
I do not know, however, what purpose these partialfonts are supposed to have exactly,
so just leaving them out might not be advisable.
