Bug#709883: keyboard-configuration: X keyboard configuration lost after upgrade

[raphael <virgule.truc@gmail.com>]

Package: keyboard-configuration
Version: 1.93
Severity: important
Tags: l10n

Hi,

I'm using sid and after an aptitude safe-upgrade, X shows up with english keyboard layout instead of french as it was before.
I tried with gdm3/ligthdm/only startx, and the problems is still here. It seems related to X or udev since the upgrade, because gnome is well set and gives a french keyboard (macbook pro one), and for awesome, my main wm, i have to setxkbmap fr in ~/.xsession to get a french keyboard layout
a few more info :

cat /etc/default/keyboard
# KEYBOARD CONFIGURATION FILE

# Consult the keyboard(5) manual page.

XKBMODEL="macbook78"
XKBLAYOUT="fr"
#XKBVARIANT="mac"
XKBOPTIONS="terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp"

BACKSPACE="guess"
XKBVARIANT="mac"


cat /etc/default/locale
#  File generated by update-locale
LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8

I'm still trying to figure out how to get french back at dm greeter

thanks

raphael
