Can't open 'mac-qwerty-layout.inc', because kbdfile already opened:

Hi, I'm totally new to arch and I'm trying to install it. I'm sorry if this question is dumb or something, I'm very noob.
I just booted arch and I'm trying to change the keyboard layout, since I'm not used to the US layout. I went into /usr/share/kbd/keymaps/mac/all and inside of it I did:
"loadkeys mac-es.map.gz"
It gave me this error:
can't open 'mac-qwerty-layout.inc, because kbdfile already opened: ../include/mac-qwerty-layout.inc
syntax error, unexpected ERROR
How can I fix this?
Thanks, and sorry for my bad english.

Change to any other directory and execute the command again without specifying the extension i.e.:

cd
# loadkeys mac-es
