Ubiquity Locale Problem

[Volkan Gezer]

Today I installed Kubuntu 13.04 on a friend's computer and used
Turkish locale. During installation process, I noticed that the
default Keyboard Layout remains in English whatever the language
selection is. Also after installation completed, I noticed that the
calendar, currency etc. settings are also wrong (they were in German
style since I picked German timezone during installation).

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

The same is for Romanian. IMO if a language is selected for the installer, all settings should default to the specific country for that language, if it's available.

Currency and friends do not map to languages but countries. Mapping to the time zone is the closest match available. So that is in fact by design.

What do you mean by "So that is in fact by design." ?

If you mean that the locale and default keyboard layout are selected accordingly to the Time Zone, then that is not true. It does not happen.

+1 for Ovidiu. I picked Turkey from the list, but the Keyboard setting was EN_GB and timezone with calendar settings were German.

Same here, when I enter my name, I can't use the Norwegian letters Æ,Ø,Å, because keyboard is still on English.. and the bug is still there in Ubuntu 19.10, and I see this bug is reported for 13.04, and this happens only for me if I choose install Ubuntu instead of try Ubuntu before install and then launch installer from live desktop, when I try Ubuntu and then install everything works.

After install everything works for me, so it is only when installing Ubuntu that keyboard is not the language I selected (Norwegian Bokmål)
