Take a look at:

Worked for me with a danish keyboard.
Only the dk-latin1.kmap.gz was not found in
/lib/kbd/keymaps/i386/qwertz
but in /lib/kbd/keymaps/i386/qwerty

Did't not perform:
If you want to have the "@" character rather on "AltGr"+"L" (Macintosh 
style) than "AltGr"+"Q" (PC style) you can perform the following:

     cd /lib/kbd/keymaps/i386/qwertz
     gunzip de-latin1.kmap.gz
     pico de-latin1.kmap

Find the line where it says "altgr keycode 16 = at" in the first couple 
of lines. Now change the value "16" there to "38". Save the file 
("Ctrl"+"O") and exit the editor ("Ctrl"+"X"). Now repack the keymap 
with gzip de-latin1.kmap.

Remember the "update" at the bottum.
