Public bug reported:

Using network booted preseed installation with the following lines to
configure keyboard:

d-i console-setup/ask_detect false
d-i keyboard-configuration/layoutcode string de
d-i keyboard-configuration/layout select German
d-i keyboard-configuration/modelcode string pc105

The problem is that after the installation there is a German and also an
English keyboard configured, see attached screenshot.

The /etc/default/keyboard file contains:
XKBMODEL="pc105"
XKBLAYOUT="de"
XKBVARIANT=""
XKBOPTIONS=""
BACKSPACE="guess"

BUT gsettings shows this:
$ gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.input-sources sources
[('xkb', 'de'), ('xkb', 'us')]

I did not touch the X configuration. X log files also don't show
anything, only that de keyboard was set for evdev.

Please advice how to get rid of English keyboard if I configure German
keyboard.
