Title:
  14.04 installation does not install german keyboard

Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Hi,

  I just tried the (beta release) of today's version of Ubuntu 14.04.

  I used my PXE boot server and used the 14.04 pxe boot loader to
  install the amd64 version into a virtual machine, running under
  virtualbox on older ubuntu. I've selected xubuntu to install (which
  should be irrelevant, since it seems to be a problem of the base os
  installation).

  Although I've chosen the german version and ran through the usual
  keyboard detection (which correctly found de nodeadkeys and correctly
  setup /etc/default/keyboard), the system lacks german keytables and
  comes up with english keyboards. The keyboard configuration in X11
  (XFCE) also lists the english keyboard only.

  Since the default settings of XFCE is to not use own keyboard tables
  but those of the underlying system, X11 comes up with english settings
  as well.

  Overriding the system settings in XFCE's keyboard configuration allows
  to manually select german keymaps, which work. But that's not the idea
  and rather a workaround.

  However, I did not yet figure out how to manually fix that the console
  level Linux does not have the german keymap.

  So it's not a problem of X11/XFCE. It is a problem of the console
  level linux environment.
