There was nothing at /usr/share/keymaps however the help section for
xkbd says that the files should be in /etc/X11/xkb/rules/. There were
several files in there that were named xorg.xml, xorg-it.lst and
xorg.lst. I copied them and renamed them xfree86.xml xfree86-it.lst and
xfree86.lst.
Going back to control center I discovered a list of keyboards, layouts
and other choices available on the keyboard layout panels.
