Description of problem:
Installation and System settings->keyboard offer various options for keymaps
even on same language, least finnish, swedish, german, norwegian and danish have
latin1 and non-latin options. These non-latin 7-bit encodings are obsolete,
using version of ASCII where several symbols (ie: @$~{|}\) are replaced with
accented letters needed to write these languages. (aka. national ISO-646 7-bit
codes.)

There are no consolefonts for these encodings neither they are compatible with
anything so using these is pointless and only creates confusion among (novice)
users.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Select Finnish keymap on installation program
2. Alternative: System settings->keyboard select Finnish


Actual Results:  Linux console prints { for key �, | for � and } �.


Expected Results:  "Finnish" keymap should use latin9 (ISO-8859) encoding.


Additional info:

Workaround is to choose "Finnish (Latin1)".
Suggested fix: move fi.map -> fi-old.map, fi-latin9.map -> fi.map.
Provide compatibility for fi-latin9 -> fi.map

Repeat for other north- and west european languages.
