I don't think your proposed solution is biased in the right direction. The install is still reported as failing, and that will continue to generate noise on mailing lists, additional bugs that will be duplicates, etc. Keyboard layout settings don't matter at all for the tip line systems - that mapping is done on the client system, so having failures occurring in those cases is really a poor result. I'd suggest that the failure is perhaps logged, but otherwise ignored. We can then release note the log message and the cases that we know leave the keyboard layout unset. Dave
