Comment 2 Parag Nemade 2017-09-19 06:26:08 UTC 
Looks like we are missing updated xkeyboard-config-2.21-3.fc27.noarch package in Beta. I have still not tested it as we need Workstation iso image updated with xkeyboard-config-2.21-3.fc27 package.

I will request Fedora QA group to evaluate if this can be blocker or exception bug but marking it as blocker currently.

I tested Indic languages only so this is affecting Indic languages only I guess.
Comment 3 Parag Nemade 2017-09-19 06:28:43 UTC 
I see the update has been already submitted for F27 stable -> https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2017-e38be801d8
Comment 4 Samantha N. Bueno 2017-09-20 08:54:24 UTC 
This is not a bug in anaconda. It is a bug in xkeyboard-config, which has been identified and fixed recently, as you've noted.
Comment 5 Kamil Páral 2017-09-20 13:04:19 UTC 
Proposing as a Beta freeze exception. This fixes Indian keyboards in anaconda. The patch looks very small, see bug 1469407 comment 31. It already has some karma in Bodhi (comment 3).

+1 Beta FE from me
Comment 6 Petr Schindler 2017-09-20 13:09:44 UTC 
+1 FE from me too.
Comment 7 Stephen Gallagher 2017-09-20 13:19:38 UTC

Comment 9 Kamil Páral 2017-09-20 13:25:07 UTC 
Marking as accepted FE.
Comment 10 Kamil Páral 2017-09-21 09:24:44 UTC 
Update from comment 3 has been pushed stable, the fix should be part of 20170921 compose. We need to test this.
