Bug ID: 442948
Summary: Keyboard layout priority is ignored
Product: systemsettings
Version: 5.22.4
Platform: Manjaro
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: kcm_keyboard
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: sergio.calleg...@gmail.com
CC: butir...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
When using multiple keyboard layouts, it is possible to "move up" or "move
down" them, establishing a priority. Unfortunately at plasma startup this
priority is ignored.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Configure an Italian and an English (US) layout
2. Set the English layout on top
3. Start plasma
OBSERVED RESULT
Plasma starts with the Italian layout. There is no way to make plasma start
with the English US layout
EXPECTED RESULT
Plasma should start with whatever layout has priority. There should be a way to
have the system start with the English US layout even if an Italian layout is
also configured.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Manjaro Linux KDE edition
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.22.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.85.0
Qt Version: 5.12.2
Working with X11
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The issue does not appear to be present in Kubuntu 20.04. However the latter
uses a much older software stack: Plamsa 5.18.7, framework 5.68. There is a
newer Qt though (5.12.8).
Another thing that may be worth mentioning is that Manjaro introduces its own
keyboard setup module that may have some interference with the KDE one.
Hence, we may be facing either a regression or a manjaro specific bug.
