Description of problem: Anaconda installer offers too many variants of Russian keyboard layout. I think all but one of them are obsolete variants of KOI8-R layout, and should be removed or hidden, because only UTF-8 layout (Russian) works after setup. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot from setup media 2. Choose Russian language 3. Actual results: Offers many variants of russian keyboard layouts. Only one variant (default one) will work after setup. Expected results: Only one variant offered. Additional info:
The ru.map.utf8ru keyboard layout (labeled as "Russian (utf8ru)") is the only working one?
No, ru.map.utf8ru is missing: system-config-keyboard gives me "cannot open file ru.map.utf8ru" message, and find /lib/kbd -name 'ru*' proves it. The only working one is ru.map, labeled Russian.
I must note, that there are still some cases for using single byte encodings KOI8-R and windows-1251 with Fedora. So I think we should not remove keyboard layouts completely, just hide them from installer and system-config-keyboard to save regular user from encodings hell.
This will be fixed in the next build of rhpl. Thanks for the information.
