Sebastian, it's more than just "preview from keymaps", whatever that is. After upgrading to Edgy, I lost my multimedia keys. I went to reassign my keyboard mapping from the pull down in the Kubuntu Systems Settings, and there were *no* keyboards to choose from, therefore no graphical way I could see to get my multimedia keys back.
Without being precious about it, IMO, this is a significant inconvenience. If this is affecting everyone, then the small change to the packages as above might be worth it. If it's just me or a subset of people, then I don't understand what went wrong in my upgrade process (OK, so I didn't use update-manager) -- No keyboard previews https://launchpad.net/bugs/58083 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
