Description Marko Myllynen 2014-07-09 14:26:05 UTC
Description of problem:
keyboards.xml currently has the following definitions for Finnish keyboards:

  <keyboard>
    <keyboardId>fi</keyboardId>
    <description>Finnish</description>
    <ascii>True</ascii>
    <languages>
      <language><languageId>fi</languageId><rank>900</rank></language>
      <language><languageId>sv</languageId><rank>100</rank></language>
    </languages>
    <territories>
      <territory><territoryId>FI</territoryId><rank>1000</rank></territory>
    </territories>
  </keyboard>
  <keyboard>
    <keyboardId>fi(nodeadkeys)</keyboardId>
    <description>Finnish (classic, eliminate dead keys)</description>
    <ascii>True</ascii>
    <languages>
      <language><languageId>fi</languageId><rank>900</rank></language>
      <language><languageId>sv</languageId><rank>100</rank></language>
    </languages>
    <territories>
      <territory><territoryId>FI</territoryId><rank>1000</rank></territory>
    </territories>
  </keyboard>

The fi one above is the standard (kotoistus) layout most people want to use but the second one, fi(nodeadkeys), is the dead key variant of the fi(fi) layout, not of fi, and my guess is that there are very few people using it, if any. But people certainly do use the fi(fi) variant which is currently not present.

See http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xkeyboard-config/tree/symbols/fi.

I think we should replace fi(nodeadkeys) with fi(fi) (description: "Finnish (classic)") and if someone actually uses fi(nodeadkeys) and complains, we can then always put fi(nodeadkeys) back.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
langtable-0.24

Mike pointed out few things over IRC:

Meant *no* dead key variant here.

And it's actually fi(classic) which has the description (it then includes fi(fi) for the actual layout).
