Bug Description
Binary package hint: kbd
I chose the UK Mac keyboard layout, and it's not right for my macbook pro 7,1.
For example the key next to shift in the bottom left is a back tick and a tilde. I get a < and a >.
See attached picture for my keyboard layout.

I see this on identical hardware to Alan's, although curiously I note that the keymap works correctly for the current generation USB apple keyboard, which has the same physical arrangement of keys (although it does have a numpad)
