Description Iiro Laiho 2016-12-04 20:17:09 UTC
Description of problem:
The Finnish (DAS) keyboard layout disappears after lastest updates on Fedora 25.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
2.19-1.fc25

How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install F25, selecting Finnish (DAS) keyboard layout
2. Run dnf update
3. Reboot

Actual results:
It reverts to the ordinary Finnish QWERTY layout

Expected results:
The layout should stay the same

Additional info:
Reproducible on two systems: on a Dell Latitude 6320 and a QEMU/KVM virtual machine.

Reverting this package to version 2.18-1 fixes the problem.

It is possibly related to this:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=92169

They moved the DAS layout in upstream from base.xml to the base.xml.extras file as it is less often used. It is however a very bad idea to do breaking changes to a released distro in such a crucial thing as a keyboard layout.

Comment 4 Peter Hutterer 2017-01-04 04:56:40 UTC
fwiw, this gsettings call enables the listing from extras.xml:

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.input-sources show-all-sources true
