[Bug 497804] [NEW] locale=ch support required for livecd

[Daniel Stoni]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: uck

Hello

I'm seeking for full support for locale=ch to build a localized Remix. This report might affect one of the following packages.
- uck 2.0.10 and before
- gfxboot-theme
- console-setup  / preseeding

I've been studying all the scripts, config files and includes, did a lot
of investigation and testing but could not spot the area where to
address this properly. It appears that any kernel params are getting
overwritten by gfxboot (locale= bootkbd= console-setup/...=).

The requirement is: 
- start live environment in german/french/italian/english language (from gfxboot) with german as default
- have swiss german keyboard ([ch]) per default

options: 
- hide other keyboard layouts from gfxboot menu except the ones of interest (ch, ch_fr, uk)
- reassign default settings if locale=ch: 
  # German language -> ch layout
  # French language -> ch_fr layout
  # Italian language -> ch_fr layout
  # English language -> ch layout 

Any hint how to achieve this?

Kind regards, dsto
