Bug#693485: keyboard-configuration: XKBLAYOUT, XKBOPTIONS values manually set in /etc/default/keyboard lost on upgrade

[Bob Bib <bobbibmpn@mail.ru>]

Package: keyboard-configuration
Version: 1.87
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,
after upgrading the whole 'console-setup' package from 1.82 to 1.87 version,
I've lost my XKBLAYOUT and XKBOPTIONS variable values
manually set in '/etc/default/keyboard';
IMHO, it's a bad upgrade behavior and such variables should be saved instead.
