Bug 216646 – kbd-1.14.1 autodetects qwerty/us.map as ISO-8859-15 rather than ISO-8859-1

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Billy DeVincentis 2008-04-07 05:19:46 UTC]

When starting service on boot with us set as keymap in configuration here is what  you get

/etc/init.d/keymaps restart
 * WARNING:  you are stopping a boot service.
 * WARNING:  you are stopping a boot service.
 * Loading key mappings ...
/usr/bin/loadkeys
assuming iso-8859-15 euro                                                 [ ok ]
 * Setting terminal encoding to UTF-8 ...                                 [ ok ]

when downgrading to previous version here is the difference

/etc/init.d/keymaps restart
 * WARNING:  you are stopping a boot service.
 * WARNING:  you are stopping a boot service.
 * Loading key mappings ...
/bin/loadkeys                                                             [ ok ]

[Comment 1 SpanKY 2008-04-07 20:57:49 UTC]

the command in question is simply:
loadkeys us

[Comment 2 SpanKY 2008-04-07 20:59:48 UTC]

erp, didnt mean to close

the message in question isnt an error, it's a warning ... and it isnt that big of a deal as ISO-8859-15 is still quite usable for probably all intents and purposes in place of ISO-8859-1

[Comment 3 SpanKY 2008-04-07 21:18:22 UTC]

Alexey: any idea ?

Thanks, Mike!

Alexey, is it my understanding you have this fixed in the latest snapshot? If so can you release a new version so that we can all update, 
Thanks

Currently, I working on new version (1.15). I think, that it would be better to make a patch for version 1.14.1. I will publish it at the ftp.

[Comment 7 Billy DeVincentis 2008-04-12 12:38:13 UTC]

if you have created the patch, please put a link here, I'm not sure where the ftp you mention is.
