i added the following to console-data.config. Something similar could be done
for m68k, altough it would be best to have something that shared the amiga
keyboards over the ppc and m68k keymaps. Not sure it is possible though.

Also i think the reason why this bit us all now, is that since a long time
console-tool was there, became essential and replaced the kbd stuff, but apt
never upgraded it. If it would have, we would have complained since earlier.
