Comment # 30 on bug 927250 from Fabian Vogt

The first part of the bug is now fixed in dracut and systemd and will reach
factory shortly. One of the fixes is enough to get a working tty, so it should
be fixed in the next snapshot.

The second part will probably not get fixed, it seems like that keyboard in
XLATE/ascii mode is not properly implemented upstream. So the udev rule won't
interfere with the UTF-8 consoles.
Having UTF-8 disabled is not recommended and not the default, so that should
not be an issue.
