Bug#626793: More info
I confirm that a fresh wheezy install don't have the correct keymap at
boot time. Unfortunately, I was less lucky than the OP and I had to
manually fix two separate issues to get rid of this problem.
Apparently both problems come from initramfs-tools, so perhaps this
bugreport should be reassigned to that package.
1/ /etc/console-setup/cached.kmap.gz is missing, because console-setup
changed the default name of the cached keymap (see #619711)
2/ /etc/initramfs-tools/initramfs.conf has a default value of
"keymap=n", which prevents update-initramfs from including said keymap
(see #669935)
After linking cached_UTF-8_del.kmap.gz to cached.kmap.gz, modifying
initramfs.conf with "keymap=y" and running update-initramfs, I had the
correct keymap at boot-time.
This system was installed last saturday (July 21st 2012).
Please note that squeeze didn't have this problem, and the correct
keymap was enabled since the very first boot.
