Hi Gunnar, thank you for the feedback,

shortcut depends on XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP ("No toggling" for GNOME and
"Alt+Shift" for others). That way there wouldn't be a need to involve

When launching a console,
If you really read the comments at bug #1762952, you see that the
initially proposed change was limited in scope. However, it proved to
come with various regressions, so it landed in a solution where the
default shortcut for switching keyboard layout was changed in console-
setup from "Alt+Shift"

I believe it relied on console-setup for the correct default.
So, console-setup shouldn't stop providing a default until AFTER ubiquity had a
question about "how to toggle the layout".

I can't recall that Ubiquity asks about shortcut for switching input
sources. Yes, it would make sense to me that such a question is asked
for those desktop environments which need it.
Please take into consideration that standard Ubuntu does not need it.
The previous default Alt+Shift caused
Regarding the "which shortcut should be used by default for toggling
layouts".
Ubuntu or Gnome should not decide that shortcut worldwide. It depends on
the locale. In Greece, we've been using Alt+Shift since at least the

That makes me think of bug #1875062.

Hi Gunnar, thank you for your input,

One example is to set the user name, e.g. Διαχειριστής (Administrator).
Another is to be able to surf etc while ubiquity is running in the background.

I was undoubtedly involved in the fix of bug #1762952.
Why is there a need to switch keyboard layout during the installation?
As regards post-install, i.e. at first boot/login, the desktop
environment ought to provide some default shortcut for switching input
sources.
