Title:
No phonetic Russian layout for azerty keyboards
Status in “xkeyboard-config” package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
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.
