Bug#657440: xkb-data: cannot switch between two kb layout in gnome



Hi

I'm not sure if Gnome interferes here. Feel free to open a bare session
(http://x.debian.net/faq/general.html) and play with setxkbmap to see
whether the layout is fucked up, or if the layout switcher in gnome is
buggy.

I launched a bare X session as requested, and there setxkbmap works perfectly. So I guess it's an interraction between xkb-data and the layout switcher in gnome, but I don't know which one is buggy.

Please note as additionnal information that if I put the be layout as default in gnome and restart my session, I have no problem anymore in the layout switcher: it works fine directly after login, and the layouts are not inverted when I choose them.

Anyway, feel free to report your findings on an upstream bug
(https://bugs.freedesktop.org/ product xkeyboard-config) and let us know
about the URL for tracking.

I'm not sure xkeyboard-config is the real culprit as setxkbmap works fine. I would even say that the gnome layout switcher is now a more compelling suspect :-) What can I do to diagnose this further ?

Thanks,
