This message is a reminder that Fedora 18 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 18. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '18'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 18's end of life. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 18 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 18's end of life. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. Following examples in l10n-kickstarts-0.20.25-1.fc20.noarch I've set simply: keyboard it This is the result in the live remix: # localectl System Locale: LANG=it_IT.UTF-8 VC Keymap: it X11 Layout: n/a Unfortunatly nor X11 neither console have the correct keymap. The current version is: $ rpm -q livecd-tools livecd-tools-20.1-1.fc20.x86_64 The keyboard handling in live cannot work. The old way of doing things no longer works inside a mock, so I don't have any way to fix this. I'm using this workaround in my kickstart to get the desired layout: %post ... cat >> /etc/rc.d/init.d/livesys << EOF_LIVESYS # Force italian keyboard layout (rhb #982394) localectl set-x11-keymap it localectl set-keymap it EOF_LIVESYS %end By closing this bug are we sayng that fedora project doesn't care about l10n? I can't speak for the project, just for me. I *care* but the tools we have *can't* do it. The reason why the above workaround works is because it runs from the booted live system which has dbus, etc. available. The koji+mock environment that livecd-creator runs inside does not have those available.

Please, if you can't solve the problem then address the issue to someone else that can help us. > The reason why the above workaround works is because it runs > from the booted live system which has dbus, etc. available. I know. > The koji+mock > environment that livecd-creator runs inside does not have those available. But in the past it was possible, now we can't anymore. Why? Systemd? Other? Commit https://git.fedorahosted.org/cgit/livecd/commit/?id=f674482986d701ddc21120fa8f9b0249095cdeec has the change.

AFAIK vconsole.conf is for console setting, not for X11 environment. Unfortunatly livecd often use graphical environment. I can't understand if the patch is the problem's cause or an attempt to solve it. What about [1]?
