The hand-edited:
  /usr/lib/udev/hwdb.d/60-keyboard.hwdb

is in the systemd source tree now:
  http://cgit.freedesktop.org/systemd/systemd/tree/hwdb/60-keyboard.hwdb?

It should contain almost all data from the keymaps. The Logitech too
broad matches for USB devices, which use the textual string instead of
the usual USB IDs have been dropped, they need to be resurrected when
someone can supply the USB IDs.

Again, any help or testing would be very welcome.

Thanks,
Kay
