Bug#677560: gnome-settings-daemon: Keyboard layout falls back to US

[Ole Hansen]

Package: gnome-settings-daemon
Version: 3.4.2-3
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer

During the install of Debian I selected English as language and Norwegian as the keyboard layout. After using the system for a while the layout falls back to US.

To get the layout back to Norwegian I went to the Layout tab in the Region and Language settings. Norwegian was the only layout available, but I installed English (US) as well. With both layouts available I am amble to toggle between them, but the selection of the Norwegian layout is not remembered, even though shows up as selected. Some times I must actively select the US layout to activate the Norwegian layout.

The expected behavior is that the system keeps the keyboard layout I select during install, and doesn't fall back to any other layout when I select a layout in the Region and Language settings.
