Dear Maintainer,
In Ubuntu, when building console-setup, we use keymapper's gen_sym to produce a
pc105.tree file for the installer.
Nowadays, console-setup's keymaps contain symbols not defined in keymapper,
resulting in gen_sym skipping over layouts:

In Ubuntu, the attached patch was applied to achieve the following:
* Fix gen_keymap refusing to work with different symbols (LP: #2152901):
- dead_kcaron,
- dead_kogonek,
- dead_kdoubleacute,
- dead_kbreve,
- dead_stroke,
- dead_currency,
- dead_belowcomma.
Thanks for considering the patch.
