Bug#857749: gnome-shell: Neo 2 keyboard layout does not work

[Jan Heitkötter]

Package: gnome-shell
Version: 3.22.3-2
Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,

I'm using German Neo 2 keyboard layout as an alternative to standard German and
I'm using Super + Space to switch between keyboard layouts.

Neo 2 stopped working in Stretch. I can switch, but the layout is seriously
messed up. None of the keys is at the right position.

I configure English (GB) as one more alternative layout, it will work fine.
Therefore I suppose this is an issue with the layout itself and not the
switching process.

Regards

Jan
