Dear Maintainer,

I'm trying to setup a i3, but I encountered a problem with keyboard
layout setup. Multiple layouts set up in /etc/default/keyboard are
ignored by i3 and only 'us' layout is available. On the other hand,
keyboard options are respected.

I have in /etc/default/keyboard

    XKBLAYOUT="us,cz"
    XKBVARIANT=",qwerty"
    BACKSPACE="guess"
    XKBMODEL="pc105"
    XKBOPTIONS="grp:alt_shift_toggle,grp_led:scroll,caps:none"

but after i3 is started, 'setxkbmap -query' returns

    rules:      evdev
    model:      pc105
    layout:     us
    options:    grp:alt_shift_toggle,grp_led:scroll,caps:none

I'd expect the layouts from the keyborad setup would be used as well. I
wasn't able to find another location which would override the keyboard
layout.

Regards,
Vlastimil Zíma
