Bug Description
Binary package hint: ubiquity
With the Ubuntu Desktop (live) ISO (2011-04-25) running the installer in German and setting my location to Germany also causes the default keyboard to be set to German (which can still be changed).
In Kubuntu, however, running the installer in German and setting the location to Germany still causes 'USA' to be selected as the suggested default keyboard.
Of course, it is still possible to select the correct keyboard. However the default should be derived from the locale or the language, or both, as is the case with the ubuntu installer.

This also applies to ubuntu. The problem occurs for the ISO for amd64+mac, but not for the ISO for amd64. In both cases I select German from the boot menu, before the live CD starts, then start the installer from the desktop in both cases. With the amd64+mac ISO the installer does not default to German. After I set the installer to German, the keyboard defaults to USA, not to German, as it should.
With the amd64 ISO, the installer defaults to German, as well as the keyboard.
