(any yes, I know archlinux is not ubuntu!) says:
------------------------------------------
A persistent keymap can be set in /etc/vconsole.conf, which is read by systemd 
on start-up. The KEYMAP variable is used for specifying the keymap. If the 
variable is empty or not set, the us keymap is used as default value. See 
vconsole.conf(5) for all options. For example:
/etc/vconsole.conf

KEYMAP=uk
...

For convenience, localectl may be used to set console keymap. It will
change the KEYMAP variable in /etc/vconsole.conf and also set the keymap
for current session:

$ localectl set-keymap --no-convert keymap
------------------------------------------
and the Ubuntu manpage for localectl basically agrees with tht.

So I ran 'sudo localectl set-keymap --no-convert gb'
and /etc/vconsole.conf was (a) created, and (b) populated with
KEYMAP=gb

This had no effect whatsoever on a shutdown and fresh reboot.  The kbmap
continues to be set as the unwanted default "us".
