[Bug 1490255] [NEW] changes in /etc/default/keyboard not loaded

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

Description:	Ubuntu 15.04
Release:	15.04
Variant:        Xubuntu

What you expected to happen:
Changes in /etc/default/keyboard to be effective.

What happened instead:
Nothing.

ex: 
 
File : /etc/default/keyboard                        

# KEYBOARD CONFIGURATION FILE

# Consult the keyboard(5) manual page.

XKBMODEL="pc105"
XKBLAYOUT="fr"
XKBVARIANT="latin9"
XKBOPTIONS="altwin:ctrl_alt_win"

BACKSPACE="guess"


Nothing happens after boot.

(but setxkbmap -option alt win:ctrl_alt_win does works)

Suggestion : 
-Remove /etc/default/keyboard as it doesn't seems to serve any purpose other than misleading people.
-Make somehow working as it should.
