[Bug 940924] Re: Keyboard Layout "German (qwerty)" missing since 12.04

 

This bug is not making ubuntu unusable by German keyboard users. I use
one myself. The layout that got removed  swaps the y and z key. The
standard keyboard layout for Germany is qwertz. A user can now only use
this layout as the qwerty layout got removed.

Title:
  Keyboard Layout "German (qwerty)" missing since 12.04

Status in “xkeyboard-config” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “xkeyboard-config” package in Debian:
  New

Bug description:
  I have updated to 12.04 today.
  Now I am missing the possibility to choose "German (qwerty)" within the Keyboard Layout dialog.

  This has been my preferred keyboard layout for a lot of years now.

  I couldn't find any traces of that layout within /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/de. 
  In 11.10 this file contains the relevant section.
