Re: Fedora 28 Change: gnome-initial-setup no longer displays Keyboard pane (so cannot select an input method)

Hi folks! I just wanted to flag up a change in Fedora 28 which will unfortunately likely be a problem for folks who use input methods: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1474787 This change considers the input panels in anaconda and g-i-s to be 'redundant', and so disables the one in g-i-s, on the theory that you should've just picked a keyboard layout in anaconda. Unfortunately, anaconda doesn't understand input methods, you can't set up an input method from anaconda. So if you need an input method (not just a keyboard layout), you now have no way to configure it before you reach the desktop; you have to know to go into Control Center and configure it after you reach the desktop. I guess this is no worse than the situation for any desktop other than GNOME, but still, it's a step backwards there. CJK folks especially, please be aware of this and let your community know about it, if we don't get it changed somehow by release :/ -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | XMPP: adamw AT happyassassin . net http://www.happyassassin.net _______________________________________________ i18n mailing list -- i18n(a)lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to i18n-leave(a)lists.fedoraproject.org
