Public bug reported:

Xenial server install doesn't allow to have US English keyboard layout
when location is Argentina.

I live in Argentina but I usually configure my servers install with the
following options:

Language: English
Country: other
Location: South America, Argentina
Locales: United States
Keyboard: English (United States)

This allows me to configure my servers with English US layout (faster
and better than Spanish layouts, at least for administration and coding)
and at the same time have the correct time zone (Buenos Aires,
Argentina).

In Xenial I can do all except for keyboard layout where the only layout
in English (Cameroon).

I have to install with Spanish layout and change it to English after the
installation is complete. No big deal actually, but I prefer the
previous behavior.

Thanks.
