No keyboard localisation when choosing "Debian Live with Localisation
Support". For example, choosing "Spanish" at this boot submenu, keyboard
is set to an USA layout (in any X, TTY and pty).
Keyboard layout should do same associations as Debian-Installer suggests
for choosen language.

Hello Narcis Garcia,
After the Debian live images switched back from live-wrapper to live-build a
long time ago, the boot menu changed and the option to select a language has
become hidden (again).
The functionality is still present, but not easily accessible.
You have to edit the boot prompt and add the following to the boot command line:
`locales=de_DE.UTF-8 keyboard-layouts=de` for a German setup
`locales=es_AR.UTF-8 keyboard-layouts=latam,es` for a Spanish setup as in
Argentina.
So you'll have to specify both language and keyboard layout, there is no
automatic deduction of the keyboard layout from the language.
With kind regards,
Roland Clobus
