Actually, I tried the variant "fr" even if it was not listed and it worked. How come that variant is not listed in the evdev.lst file? Should that problem be reported upstream?
Strangely, in the kcontrol Keyboard layout selection menu, the variant "fr" for the canadian keyboard does appear. As for the ca-fr layout, it is very particular in that it accepts dead keys as input, for accented letters. The fr-legacy does not, but the fr-dvorak does, although I am still not quite ready with dvorak layouts. Thanks for your help!
