Hey, folks. I'm not really sure how to frame it, but the result of all
my poking about at keyboard layout bugs and related stuff recently is
that I'm pretty sad at the state of support for
anything-but-U.S.-English in Fedora 18.

I really didn't want this to turn into a release philosophy thread, the
question was limited strictly to a 'how bad do we really think these
keymap issues are' thing.
I think they are quite an issue still. Even basic things like a non-us
qwerty keymap (IE dvorak) still has issues from anaconda (Is still
qwerty in tty).
Oh, yeah, that's another issue I didn't call out - setting a keymap
within anaconda doesn't necessarily set it on the console. (Though did
that work in F17?) And apparently the console layout you get when
picking Czech is a bad one, that needs its own bug.
Considering you cannot easily switch input method in Gnome 3.6 [1] and
that is not going to change in 3.6, I consider every other keyboard
layout issue as insignificant and F18 should be released as it is now,
because it will not be better.
That's really overplaying the issue.

Just a bit :)

  You can configure a perfectly
reasonable shortcut in gnome-tweak-tool. And that issue is pretty
orthogonal to many of the ones I listed.

So I'll try to put it differently.

I installed F18 Beta TC7 and since that time I am using it for my daily work. I selected Czech localization with Czech layout as my primary one during installation and English as a secondary. I did not noticed any issue with layout except that Gnome thing which is the most annoying issue I could discover (and would love to see it fixed, but it realistically, it will not be).

Comparing to F17, when I did the same steps, the only difference is that Plymouth is using Czech layout when asking for LUKS password while it used English in F17. This could be probably considered improvement considering that Czech layout have been always my primary layout.

If there is any other issue, I was not personally affected by it and therefore I'd love to see F18 released as it is now, possible issues documented and fixed in F19
