Bug#398290: xserver-xorg: No Greek keyboard after fresh install
Package: xserver-xorg
Version: 1:7.1.0-5
Severity: normal
Tags: l10n
Doing a fresh install on a current etch system xserver-xorg fails to
setup a Greek keyboard leaving
/etc/X11/xorg.conf unconfigured regarding the Greek keyboard layout.
During setup xserver-xorg shows this message:
xserver-xorg postinst warning: failed to infer keyboard layout from
layout/lang 'gr--el_GR'
This means that Greek users will not be able to write Greek in etch if
they do not manually add
Option "XkbLayout" "us,gr" and Option "XkbOptions"
"grp:alt_shift_toggle" to the xorg.conf file either by editing
the file or reconfiguring the package
