After several updates I've noticed that this bug report had not gotten any attention, because it seems that it only affects me. So I wanted to bring attention to the fast that this isn't so.
Before reporting this bug, I found a __current__ thread about missing layouts in the Ubuntu forum.

I followed the advice and fiddled with both keyboards-rg and xkb-data to not avail.
In addition there are others with layout issues. ubuntuforums. org/showthread. php?t=1822904& highlight= keyboard+ layouts+ missing
