seb128happyaron, enjoy, and have a good w.e if you call it a week!10:06
happyaronthank you!10:07
seb128happyaron, on that fcitx SRU you probably want to re-tag it verification-done-xenial since you tested on that serie10:29
GunnarHjseb128: Did you miss my questions above, or did other stuff come between?10:31
seb128GunnarHj, oh sorry, I read it and started to look and got sidetracked10:32
GunnarHjseb128: ;)10:32
seb128GunnarHj, I can sponsor xkeyboard-config sure10:32
GunnarHjseb128: Great (that's the easy one).10:33
seb128GunnarHj, the other bugs I don't really understand the situations and what layouts are filtered out by default and why10:35
GunnarHjseb128: By default the layouts in evdev.xml are shown. There are some not so frequently used layouts in evdev.extras.xml too, and to make them accessible you currently need to set a gsettings value.10:36
GunnarHjseb128: I think this distinction is driven by the GNOME folks.10:37
GunnarHjseb128: So one idea is a GUI option along those lines. Another idea is to simply show all layouts always. (People reasonably use the search field anyway.)10:38
seb128do they have an UI in GNOME for it?10:40
GunnarHjseb128: Nope. And they don't plan to either. But other distros have (it's mentioned in the bug description.)10:41
seb128I would try to convince GNOME if you think it's important10:41
seb128if they don't agree we can think on maybe doing it as a distro specific way10:42
GunnarHjseb128: I'm pretty sure they won't do it. See for instance https://bugzilla.gnome.org/682240, comment #3.10:45
ubot5Gnome bug 682240 in libgnome-desktop "Option to enable extra keyboard layout is missing" [Major,Resolved: fixed]10:45
seb128GunnarHj, that was 5 years ago they went a bit back on some of their design and added more options I think, would be worth opening a new bug and making a case/giving example of some users it's useful for10:47
GunnarHjseb128: Well, maybe, but relatively few people are still affected. This reminds me of the integration between IBus and the keyboard layouts, when GNOME started to use some whitelist (or blacklist) to prevent some options from being shown. If I remember correctly, we didn't follow them then.10:50
seb128could be, we don't need to strictly follow them10:50
seb128especially on unity-control-center since that's our codebase/don't rebase on upstream so don't need to keep the diff low10:51
seb128but still we shouldn't add an UI if there is not a good reason for it10:51
seb128corner cases might be more for tweaks tools10:51
seb128I'm not sure to understand if we exclude some parts of the world there or just some people who like a specific config10:52
seb128the former would justify and UI the later is rather tweak tool material10:52
GunnarHjseb128: Hopefully we rather exclude some people who want a special config. The Elfdalian layout (which is part of the xkeyboard-config upload) is a minority language in Sweden with a few thousand speakers. That's what called my attention to it.10:55
seb128GunnarHj, k10:56
GunnarHjseb128: The size of evdev.xml is 207 kb and of evdev.extras.xml 26 kb, so showing everything by default, i.e. without a special UI, wouldn't make a huge difference.10:56
seb128can include that when trying to convince GNOME :-)10:57
GunnarHjseb128: I'm pretty sure they will say no. This is a rather fresh example of a move from evdev.xml to evdev.extrax.xml at a request by GNOME:11:02

desrtnot by much.  probably will finish at 4 or 4:30 today11:18
desrtgoing to hamilton to visit my family with mascha and introduce them to mascha's mom11:19
GunnarHjseb128: Should I take it that the only change you can think of (unless GNOME would reconsider) is a new option in unity-tweak-tool? A one liner gsettings command is probably less inconvenient to get the layout you want than installing that tool.11:21
seb128nice11:22
seb128GunnarHj, I don't know, it's always tricky, as said I don't know how many users are impacted ... also your checkbox suggestion could be fine but I'm not a designer and I don't know if it would be best to have an option changing the current list or rather another dialog to list the extra ones11:23
seb128do you know what other platforms do?11:23
GunnarHjseb128: According to the Ubuntu bug KDE4 showed them all, and GNOME2 had an option. But I could investigate what they do today.11:25
seb128GunnarHj, what about windows/macOS?11:26
seb128android11:26
GunnarHjseb128: No idea. But they aren't using xkb, are they?11:26
seb128no but they must have keyboard layouts and similar concepts?11:26
GunnarHjseb128: True. Ok, I'll try to find out.11:27
seb128thanks!11:27
GunnarHjseb128: Thanks for listening! ( And don't forget that xkeyboard-config bug. ;) )11:29
