Title:
Incorrect LAYOUT is set when choosing Lithuanian in dpkg-reconfigure
keyboard-configuration and Ubiquity
Status in console-setup package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in console-setup package in Debian:
Fix Released
Bug description:
If user chooses Lithuanian keyboard layout during installation
(Ubiquity) or dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration then incorrect
layout is set in /etc/default/keyboard :
XKBLAYOUT="lt,lt"
XKBVARIANT=",us"
This configuration is not intuitive, because people think, that
sometimes Lithuanian keyboard works (when lt1 is selected in GNOME
shell panel) and sometimes doesn't work (when lt2 is selected).
So, majority of Lithuanian users are force to removed second lt(us)
layout and add English (US) altgr-intl layout.
So, correct /etc/default/keyboard should be:
XKBMODEL="pc105"
XKBLAYOUT="lt,us"
XKBVARIANT=",altgr-intl"
XKBOPTIONS="grp_led:scroll"
BACKSPACE="guess"
I'm attaching a patch to debian/keyboard-configuration.config file
which fixes this issue
