This seems like it's just the installers choice of keyboard; so setting
for Ubiquity.

Title:
  Fresh installation of Ubuntu installs poor choice of keyboard for gd

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Apologies if I sound a little frustrated but I've been going round in
  circles since May last year trying to fix what seems to be a simple
  issue.

  When a user installs a fresh version of Ubuntu and selects Gaelic (gd)
  as the locale, it installs IBM 166 as the default keyboard. This is
  unused and unusable for Gaelic, I have no idea why this became default
  in the first place. This is not about the order in which they're
  displayed in the list of available keyboards, this is about the
  keyboard the system installs and sets as default.

  The l10n mailing list pointed me at freedesktop
  (https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=64478) where I got
  redirected to Ubuntu. I filed a bug but was told it's not a bug issue
  and to open a question. I opened a question
  (https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/229177) which has
  remained unresolved since May 2013.

  Could someone *please* help me?
