Bryce, The issue is not on Mali, the issue is on Malayalam which breaks Mali.
>From a user's standpoint, after installing oneiric, if you choose any Mali (country) or Bambara (language) layout, you will get Malayalam (language). It is easy to distinguish as Malayalam uses a non-latin script. The causes I've identified in the past were a conflict of codes and filenames: Mali (country) has an ISO3166-1 code of ML XKB convention is that layouts are stored in per-country files named after the ISO3166-1 code (thus ml) Malayalam (language) has an ISO 639-1 code of ML According to upstream the problem is not with the ml layout (to fix the problem locally, I rename ml to mali and change its name in evdev.xml) Looking at evdev.xml in oneiric, I am not sure how to resolve the problem as Malayalam no longer makes reference to ML but only to MAL. I imagine the problem still lies in code conversion but I can't check as freedesktop website is down for me at the moment. -- Mali country codes: ISO 3166-1 Alpha-3 MLI ISO 3166-1 Alpha-2 ML Malayalam language codes: ISO 639-1 ml ISO 639-2 mal ISO 639-3 mal Bambara language codes: ISO 639-1 bm ISO 639-2 bam ISO 639-3 bam -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/575660 Title: Mali layout selects Malayalam layout To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xkeyboard-config/+bug/575660/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
