Yes, it is. Perhaps I was not clear the first time, so I'll try again:
The current active standard for keyboard layouts is still BDS 5237:1978. (Link to the Bulgarian Institute of Standardization: http://www.bds- bg.org/standard/info.php?standard_id=14264 ) Keyboards manufactured in or imported to Bulgaria still have their Cyrillic markings according to this standard. (I'll attach a picture of my keyboard). The current default keyboard layout in Ubuntu is based on the proposed standard prBDS 5237:2006, which was supposed to replace the current one. It was quite aggressively pushed by its authors, but wasn't accepted. (See this news item: http://www.bds-bg.org/news/?news_id=24 or try searching the BDS site for 5237:2006 - if you search the standards, you'll find that no such standard is found.) Ubuntu's current default Bulgarian keyboard layout is based on the unaccepted standard. Which means that people are getting characters they don't expect from looking at the keys, and some common characters (e.g. brackets) are put in a really awkward places. My proposed solution is to keep the new "standard" as an option, but leave the old one as the default: * Bulgaria * Bulgaria (prBDS 5237:2006) * Bulgaria Phonetic (traditional) * Bulgaria Phonetic (prBDS 5237:2006) (BTW, is there any reason why it is "Bulgaria", not "Bulgarian"? And is there a way to keep "prBDS" before "traditional", or the list is strictly alphabetical?) I can submit a patch if I have some time to spare. -- Bulgarian keyboard layout does not match the current standard https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/514869 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
