Shows that problem is with translated (non-ASCII) strings. http://launchpadlibrarian.net/41344290/Screenshot-10.04%20%CE%92%CE%AD%CF%84%CE%B11%20%5BRunning%5D%20-%20Sun%20VirtualBox-2.png |

Keyboard layout encoding problem (????) during install |
Corrupted layout/variant list on Step 3 in installer |
|

description |
Binary package hint: ubiquity
During install of Ubuntu 10.04 Beta1,
1. I selected the Greek language. The same problem appears with Russian and any script that has translated 'xkeyboard-config' to a non-ASCII language.
2. At the keyboard layout page, the translated strings of xkeyboard-config appear as ????????????.
This is an encoding issue.
I do not know where the installer finds the Greek localisation messages for xkeyboard-config.
Something happens in the Python code that messed up the encoding.
In addition, in one of the screenshots below it shows that layout list gets corrupted. The layout list includes system directories. |
Binary package hint: ubiquity
SUMMARY: While installing Ubuntu, on Step 3 we can choose a keyboard layout.
The layout names are localised by the package xkeyboard-config).
If on Step 1 we chose a language such as Russian, Greek, French,
then those layout names on Step 3 appear as in the screenshots (UTF-8 text shown as ??????).
HOW TO REPRODUCE:
1. Get either Ubuntu 10.04 Beta1 or the daily live ISO (tried lucid-desktop-i386.iso, 25-Mar-2010).
2. Start the LiveCD and go into the installer.
3. On Step 1, select the Greek language (Russian, etc work as well).
Any language that translated xkeyboard-config and the script has characters other than US ASCII).
See http://translationproject.org/domain/xkeyboard-config.html for available languages.
4. On Step 3, notice the layout names. You may select Custom and go through the layout and variant lists.
5. Instead of showing UTF-8 text, ubiquity read the names as if the encoding was US ASCII (7-bit), thus the ? character appears.
In addition, one of the screenshots below shows that layout list gets corrupted with system directories names. |
