Title:
  system keyboard layout not honored

Status in sddm package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in xorg-server package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in sddm package in Mandriva:
  Unknown

Bug description:
  I'm on a fresh install of Kubuntu:
  Description:    Ubuntu 15.04
  Release:        15.04

  I chose German as installation language, de with nodeadkeys as
  keyboard and locale is set to de_DE.UTF-8.

  The console uses the correct keyboard, however when logging into sddm,
  the keyboard layout is set to US.

  SDDM doesn't seem to honour the keyboard configured during
  installation.

  SDDM installed is:
  ddm:
    Installiert:           0.11.0-0ubuntu10
    Installationskandidat: 0.11.0-0ubuntu10
    Versionstabelle:
   *** 0.11.0-0ubuntu10 0
          500 http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ vivid/universe amd64 Packages
          100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

  I believe it's a bug since the keyboard layout at login window after
  installing as described above should be the default system one, german
  in the above case.

  I have tried all sorts of ways (including some ugly hacks) to get this
  resolved on a previous installation but didn't find a way. Considering
  the many moving parts to get the login manager up and running, I'm
  aware this might be filed against the wrong package. It might even be
  an installer bug.

  
  Thanks!
