That's it, yes: Ubuntu apparently split out the locale files into a 
*-i18n package.

To verify, compare 
http://packages.ubuntu.com/precise/all/xkb-data-i18n/filelist with 
output of "dpkg -L xkb-data" on a Debian system.

When using Deban packages simply remove the (then bogus) dependency on 
xkb-data-i18n.
