The package console-cyrillic does the oposite for the Cyrillic languages. This package is simply an inteligent wrapper arount `consolechars' and `loadkeys'. It provides the Linux console with flexible keyboard configuration similar to what xkb provides to X Window. It is possible to extend the functionality of console-cyrillic to cover non-Cyrillic languages, but this would require manual conversion of the files in /etc/X11/xkb/symbols to another format.
