I fociblity purged the xserver-xorg package (1:7.1.0-15) installed and installed
1:7.1.0-15.1 (which only added the previous patch and a changelog entry - patch
attached), I installed all resulting packages from the build (except -dev
packages), including xserver-xorg.
Then I added a new user, restarted gdm and logged in with the new user. The
default keyboard layout was the romanian one.
(I think the next section deserves a bug of its own, but I'll let others judge
this.)
WRT the non-scalability, I agree and think we should add a step to the new
language process[1] that would add pairs like:
fr-latin9,fr:xmap=fr
ro:xmap=ro
ro-comma:xmap=ro,variant=comma
Which should define DI to Xorg layout mappings and we could add that info
directly as pacthes to xorg (or maybe console-data, or which is the
most-hip-console-layout-database) and xorg could use that information during
build to make the appropriate xserver-xorg.postinst section (of course, if added
to other package than xorg, xorg would have to Build-Depend on that package,
thus takign the most recent information).
What do you think?
