Just after updating Debian to 10.11, the problem was solved.
Now I can set up the keyboard system-wide correctly,
and SDDM is starting as expected. Thanks again,
Mr. Cater.

I tried "dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration" and I have to admit
it was much easier to use. It has very well explained steps with full
keyboard configuration and a straightforward selection process
among the options.
Unfortunately, it did not work on the virtual terminal, only on the
X Window System. "localectl" also sets some configuration
in "/etc/vconsole.conf" but it does not work either. However,
one of the last steps in the keyboard-configuration
of dpkg-reconfigure suggested that I could use the keys combination
Ctrl + . (period) as a compose key (no matter whether I chose
another key as a compose key); thanks to that, I can now write
accented letters in the console. Thanks again, Mr. Wright.
Have a good day.
