Dear Maintainer,

Greek characters μ ξ ζ γ appears UGLY.
I fix them and I provide the new Greek-Fixed16.psf.gz
Please do not ignore because I am not a graphist and I spend a lot of time for just 4 chars.

(This message created from `reportbug`. I will send images and files with a follow-up email).

These are coming from unifont, so that's where we should be fixing it.

Yes, but the psf file in the console-setup-linux package is generated
from the unifont package.

(actually, not yet, but that's the long-term plan).

I should have be explicit about it: the few "control:" lines at the top
of my mail had already created a report there. Now merging the two to
avoid a duplicate.

 Well, Samuel, let me confirm with it.
 You said those glphs comes from unifont, do those glphs in "Fonts/bdf/unifont.bdf"?
 If so, it is very different from unifont package one, can we sync those
 unifont.bdf?

That's what I already implemented in the to-be-released console-setup
version 1.216.
