Bug #834487 allows to workarround the bug and for me the problem is not in lightdm package : layout is wrong under X without dm (gdm lightdm or other). evdev does not use values set in /etc/defaults/keyboard Setting these values in /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-evdev.conf as below, solves this problem.
