** Description changed:
On the raspi arm64 server image, I used to use cloud-init's keyboard
module to set my keyboard to GB by default. However, on mantic localectl
(which the keyboard module uses) is now reporting:
- $ localectl set-x11-keymap gb pc105
- Setting X11 and console keymaps is not supported in Debian
+ $ localectl set-x11-keymap gb pc105
+ Setting X11 and console keymaps is not supported in Debian
So ... how do I get my £ key by default now? Or should this be filed
against systemd as well?
+
+
+ === update ====
+ cloud-init 23.3 release now writes /etc/default/keyboard directly instead of
calling: localectl set-x11-keymap. After setting keymap/layout, cloud-init also
runs: systemctl restart console-setup.
+
+ The remaining question is do we want to improve usability of the error
+ message or hints/docs for admins describing how to set up keymap/layout?
** Summary changed:
- "localectl set-x11-keymap" doesn't work in mantic
+ Usability: "localectl set-x11-keymap" doesn't work in mantic
** Changed in: cloud-init (Ubuntu)
