I add more details here.
I run i3 as WM.
my keyboard layout is switching via xorg mechanism
dom0 has a file /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/00-keyboard.conf:
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "system-keyboard"
MatchIsKeyboard "on"
Option "XkbLayout" "us,ru"
Option "XkbModel" "pc105"
Option "XkbOptions" "grp:caps_toggle"
EndSection
Debian-12 template and its appvms do not have any special settings for
keyboard layout switching. It just inherits dom0 settings.
So, if i switch keyboard layout (being in debian-12 appvm context) - it
switches current keyboard layout (for this appvm) and for dom0 as well.
if i am switching it within dom0 - this switch works only for dom0.
This was ok for me.
But appvms based on debian-13 seem completely ignore global dom0 xorg
layout switching settings and keyboard layout is not switching at all.
not for appvm context and not from dom0.

Hello everyone.
I have a problem after manual upgrade from debian-12 to debian-13.
Keyboard language switching doesn't work anymore in debian-13.
Both templates have "qubesdb-watch /keyboard-layout" running,
but appvms based on new template just fail to switch languages.
Regards,
Vitali
