I reported this in the Freedesktop's Bugzilla, (hopefully) following the rules for suggesting a new layout. I think this bug is not relevant anymore. Closing it.
Thanks William Lee for having taken the time to look at my report. ** Bug watch added: freedesktop.org Bugzilla #84789 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=84789 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to xkeyboard-config in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1375445 Title: No phonetic Russian layout for azerty keyboards Status in “xkeyboard-config” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: Users of azerty keyboards lack of Russian phonetic layout. Their only option is to use phonetic qwerty. This is not really acceptable, so I propose to add support with the attached patches for azerty Russian phonetic wit the following variants: - ru(phonetic_azerty): basic phonetic azerty - ru(phonetic_winkeys_azerty): basic phonetic azerty, with WinKeys - ru(phonetic_fr): French specific phonetic azerty. This completes the 3rd level following the French layout (Alt Gr + a key) - ru(phonetic_winkeys_fr): same, with WinKeys base.xml.patch patches /usr/share/X11/xkb/rules/base.xml base.lst.patch patches /usr/share/X11/xkb/rules/base.lst evdev.xml.patch patches /usr/share/X11/xkb/rules/evdev.xml ru.patch patches /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/ru Please tell me if anything is wrong or could be improved. Please also note that I know almost nothing of the Russian language and its Cyrillic alphabet so there could be errors. We also could want to add this layout for users coming from Windows and used to it : http://tnit.fr/aa.htm Cheers, Raphaël.
