Package: debian-installer Severity: normal Tags: l10n
I'm trying to deploy Debian using preseeding. Unfortunately I'm not able to set the swiss german keyboard layout. The append line contains the following settings: language=en country=CH locale=en_US.UTF-8 debian-installer/keymap=de_CH keymap=de_CH But the keymap is not set correctly. If I switch to the second console the file /etc/default/keyboard contains: XKBMODEL="pc105" XKBLAYOUT="us" XKBVARIANT="" XKBOPTIONS="" I also tried the setting sg-latin1: language=en country=CH locale=en_US.UTF-8 debian-installer/keymap=sg-latin1 keymap=sg-latin1 The file /etc/default/keyboard then contains: XKBMODEL="pc105" XKBLAYOUT="" XKBVARIANT="de" XKBOPTIONS="" The same setup for swiss french seems to work. language=en country=CH locale=en_US.UTF-8 debian-installer/keymap=fr_CH keymap=fr_CH Contents of /etc/default/keyboard: XKBMODEL="pc105" XKBLAYOUT="ch" XKBVARIANT="fr" XKBOPTIONS="" If the keymap options are not set on the append line and swiss german is selected manually it seems to work. I used the debian-installer from the i386 netboot: ftp://ftp.ch.debian.org/debian/dists/wheezy/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/debian-installer/i386/ I haven't tested any other installer yet.
