Please support more keymaps #32

Hi, I just started using kigen on Gentoo and discovered that only genkernel's standard keymaps are supported. I'm using de-latin1-nodeadkeys and to get it to work I had to:

loadkeys /usr/share/keymaps/i386/qwertz/de-latin1-nodeadkeys.map.gz busybox dumpkmap > de-latin1-nodeadkeys.map

then add it to kigen's keymaps.tar.gz, and edit the included keymapList.

I would like kigen to do this automatically.

Hi, Yes kigen is re using keymaps.tar.gz and patch linuxrc scripts from genkernel. I would advise to make a bugzilla report at b.g.o. If gentoo could fix it, that would be ideal. However, I have low confidence that you'll see your patch coming through though :) So as it's been a while I haven't updated kigen, especially the linuxrc scripts, I could patch keymaps as well. I'll look into it.
