Proper location of codepages

[Richard Sharpe]

Hi,

As per this email from John, we are in agreement as to where these code
pages should go.

However, I am not sure of the wisdom of changing the packaging files this
close to a release ... Perhaps I will make the changes after the release of
2.2.1.
