Created attachment 814924 [details] anaconda-20.25.1-keyboard-layout-naming-6.patch Description of problem: The the new anaconda UI I really wanted to have this patch. Currently this is a lot of repetition in the way anaconda displays keyboard layout names in its UI, since it uses roughly _ iso_lang.name (_ xkb.description) and often xkb.description starts with langname resulting in: eg: - English (English (US)) - Japanese (Japanese) - Arabic (Arabic) - German (German (Austria)) - <Language> (<Language> (<variant>)) - etc The attached patch which I have tested carefully for various major languages improves this so that instead it display just: - English (US) - Japanese - Arabic - German (Austria) - <Language> (<variant>) - etc For layouts where description does not start with lang the output remains same are currently. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): anaconda-20 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install fedora with anaconda Actual results: 1. Installer shows US layout as "English (English (US))" Expected results: 2. Installer should show US layout as "English (US)" Additional info: I feel the current output is confusing and suboptimal so I hope this patch can be used in Fedora 20.
Good idea! I'll send this patch to anaconda-patches for a review.
Discussed at 2013-10-23 freeze exception review meeting: http://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-blocker-review/2013-10-23/f20-blocker-review.2013-10-23-16.00.log.txt . Rejected as a freeze exception issue: this is an entirely cosmetic and fairly trivial change to a vital and very fragile element of the installer, and that's a bad thing to take during a freeze period. This does not mean the change can't go into F20, but we'd prefer it be landed post-Beta, so we can catch any breakage early in Final testing without destabilizing Beta.

I'm sorry, but I've accidentally pushed the patch to the f20-branch as well as to the master branch. Shall I revert it or could we give it a try and revert it in case of some troubles? I've tested it and everything looks okay and working as expected. Sorry for complicating things.
