According to
https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/fi/wiki/Tiedosto:KB_Finnish_Multilingual.svg
the hyphen key should have some deadkey diacritic that would appear OVER
a letter but, instead, /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/fi has
dead_belowcomma, which is apparently a non-existent symbol, which makes
console-setup complain loudly.

    key <AB10> { [  minus,           underscore,       endash,
dead_belowcomma       ] };

There's two issues at stake:  
1) the kernel has a problem with dead_belowcomma.
2) the keymap is incorrect to begin with. See the wikipedia map I linked to.

Martin-Eric, for #1 if you can file a bug with the kernel guys and
mention it to jfo, they might be able to look at it, although it's
probably too late for such kernel changes in natty.

No, it doesn't.  But, however, the ten seconds it took me to download
the source package for keyboard-configuration (a Debian-specific package
which has literally nothing to do with X) and run grep shows what does
trigger that warning: the fact that ckbcomp (again, nothing to do with
X) has a built-in X keysym -> kernel keysym table, which does not
include dead_belowcomma.

As someone who is apparently both an X and a Debian developer, surely
you could've done this yourself?
