I see; but that is just the list. Where are the actual files for the layouts? Does selecting a keyboard layout work for you?There was nothing at /usr/share/keymaps however the help section for xkbd says that the files should be in /etc/X11/xkb/rules/. There were several files in there that were named xorg.xml, xorg-it.lst and xorg.lst. I copied them and renamed them xfree86.xml xfree86-it.lst and xfree86.lst.
Going back to control center I discovered a list of keyboards, layouts and other choices available on the keyboard layout panels.
% ls -l /etc/X11/xkb/rules/

Yes it does. For whatever reason the installation didn't create the symlinks that you are showing. I removed the copied files and generated symlinks to the xorg files. That works nicely.
