A temporary solution is to rollback gnome-shell gnome-shell-common to the previous versions, as described here https://askubuntu.com/a/1110089/190625. I see no major issues with these versions.
I am also disappointed with the patch not being merged in bionic. It's definitely not the 'Ubuntu way' to tackle such issues in an LTS distribution. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1812266 Title: Keyboard layout indicator does not indicate current layout (18.04 Bionic beaver) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1812266/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
