I am using Ubuntu 12.04. The keyboard layout is English US everywhere except for the Command Line where it works in English UK. Terminal also has English US. How do I change the default keyboard layout in Command Line to English US?
Also, I think it might be worth noting here, that when I had installed Ubuntu (dual boot with Windows 8. 1), I had initially set the language as English UK, but later changed it to English US from the system settings.

Update 2017-04-13: This seems to have changed in recent Ubuntu versions and running
sudo apt-get install console-common
will try to remove other packages. So, for recent Ubuntu versions, use this instead (Tested in 17.04):The simplest way would indeed be as @steeldriver suggested to open a terminal and run this command:
That will install the
console-common
package and in the process allow you to chose your console layout. If that is already installed, use this to bring up the same wizard and set the layout:Tested on 13.10, and taken from here.
