The attached debdiff is an attempt at that. When the keyboard-configuration package is upgraded, the main code in the postinst script is not run. When installing, including reinstalling the package, it works as usual, and also when running "dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration".

I uploaded the patch to this PPA (bionic):

(The proposed changes to d/control and d/rules proved to be needed for the PPA upload.)
