Title:
keyboard settings not applied
Status in console-setup package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Global keyboard settings are set in /etc/defaults/keyboard:
XKBMODEL="pc105"
XKBLAYOUT="de"
XKBVARIANT=""
XKBOPTIONS="lv3:ralt_switch,compose:menu,terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp"
BACKSPACE="guess"
These settings are not active any more after upgrading from focal to groovy.
Same applies if upgrading from groovy to hirsute. The file
/etc/defaults/keyboard is untouched, but any console uses an US keyboard.
Same applies for X11-Sessions: all users have their keyboard defaulted to US
layout. Any other layouts configured for any user vanishes. Configurations have
to be done again as it they never where set.
For all users settings -> Keyboard -> Keyboard Layout is set to use
system-wide keyboard settings. This is set to US layout. This seems
not changeable at all! If this depends on file /etc/defaults/keyboard.
It does not respect this file.
There has to be a way to set some other keyboard layout system-wide.
Not only for one session or one user! And: this setting shall not be
overwritten by upgrading. And it shall not be ignored after upgrading!
