The more I think about it, I think this must be coming from anaconda. Maybe the coming keyboard layout improvements coming to anaconda might address this? But I don't think anaconda should setup Alt+Shift toggle when there is only one keyboard layout defined. I think this happens since for most languages currently one gets US layout by default in addition to native layout. But one then removes US layout in the keyboard spoke the alt_shift_toggle remains. If US layout was not added by default for most languages this would probably be less of a problem. I think that this bug can be closed based on the new anaconda behavior. grp:alt_shift_toggle is still set if more than one layout is configured by the selections on the welcome screen, but most locales now only configure one keyboard layout. The exceptions are languages using non-Latin characters, the assumption there being that the user will always need another layout in order to type English-based commands and such. So the problem you describe still exists in the sense that if you start with two layouts and remove one, the layout switch shortcut will still be in effect if not also manually removed (under the Options dialog on the keyboard spoke), but I think that it's now unlikely that a user will end up in a situation where grp:alt_shift_toggle is set unexpectedly. |
