Package: xrdp
Version: 0.9.24-5
Severity: important
Recently, I have noticed that logging in via a recent version of xrdp,
while using the Dvorak layout on the client, yields a QWERTY layout in
the remote framebuffer after getting past the login dialog. This is
incorrect behavior and has never happened before.
After some digging, I tracked the problem down to this:
https://bugs.debian.org/1063725
It is no longer possible to refer to the Dvorak layout as just "dvorak"
(as when one would run "setxkbmap dvorak"); one must now use either
"us dvorak" or "us(dvorak)". The below edit fixes the issue and allows
me the proper keymap after logging in:
