Public bug reported:
Since I upgrade GNOME Shell from 3.4 to 3.6, the keyboard indicator is blank
and doesn't display the codename for the active keyboard layout.
I have enabled english & arabic keyboard layouts. I have the following
settings:
$ gsettings list-recursively org.gnome.desktop.input-sources
org.gnome.desktop.input-sources current uint32 0
org.gnome.desktop.input-sources show-all-sources true
org.gnome.desktop.input-sources sources [('xkb', 'xkb_layout')]
org.gnome.desktop.input-sources xkb-options @as []
I checked the code in /usr/share/gnome-shell/js/ui/status/keyboard.js, and I
reached the '_inputSourcesChanged' method in 'InputSourceIndicator' class, the
program does run the following code:
let [type, id] = sources.get_child_value(i).deep_unpack();
if (type == INPUT_SOURCE_TYPE_XKB) {
[info.exists, info.displayName, info.shortName, , ] =
this._xkbInfo.get_layout_info(id);
I checked the 'id' variable, and its value was 'xkb_layout' (as per the
settings).
Yet the output of the last statement { this._xkbInfo.get_layout_info(id) } is
[ false, null, null, , ]
Can anyone help with this issue ? I'm not sure if its a bug in GNOME Shell, or
something wrong with my system or settings.
Note: This issue has been in Ubuntu precise & it is still happening in
raring, that I am running right now
