ibus-setup only makes a selection of XKB layouts available, and the basic UK layout is not one of those.
The XKB layouts available are hard coded in the file /usr/share/ibus/component/simple.xml, and a workaround would be to edit that file and simply add the layout you are missing. This issue is upstream in nature, and it would be great if you could submit an upstream issue: https://github.com/ibus/ibus/issues/ I don't know which criteria they used for the selection, and such an upstream issue would be a way to shed some light on the thoughts behind that file. I recently saw a Debian bug about this issue: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=942245 ** Bug watch added: Debian Bug tracker #942245 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=942245 ** Changed in: ibus (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed ** Also affects: ibus (Debian) via https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=942245 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1835541 Title: ibus only provides non-standard UK keyboard layouts To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ibus/+bug/1835541/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
