[Raphael Finkel]

1. This is on oneiric, gnome-control-center 1:3.2.1-0ubuntu1 (unlike other previously reported similar problems)
2. It happens when I click on keyboard layout
3. gnome-keyboard-layout is missing from the Oneiric distribution of gnome-control-center.
4. When I start gnome-control-center, I get 22 warnings: ** (gnome-control-center:3711): WARNING **: Could not find icon

the bug is years old without activity nor new report and the code changed quite a lot since, closing, feel free to register new bugs if you have issues in newer versions though
