[Bug 985804] Re: Expert mode does not offer all described keyboard configuration options

[Colin Watson]

These were intentionally dropped a while back, and I don't intend to
reintroduce them.  The test case should be amended.  Even in expert
mode, there were some questions that it just didn't make sense to ask at
all in the installer.

** Package changed: debian-installer (Ubuntu) => console-setup (Ubuntu)

** Changed in: console-setup (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Won't Fix
