Target Milestone: ---
Classification: Fedora
Description of problem:
I do not have any variants for Macintosh available when trying to change the
keyboard layout via the GUI (Region & Language Settings).
Trying to manually set the keymap in the locale works for the VC keymap, but
not for the X11 Layout. It will set VC keymap to "de-mac" or "de_mac"
respectively, leave the X11 Layout at "de"
localectl set-keymap de-mac
Digging even deeper, the following commands all yield the same errors:
localectl set-x11-keymap de-mac
localectl set-x11-keymap de_mac
localectl set-x11-keymap de macintosh de_mac
All yield: "Failed to set keymap: Specified keymap cannot be compiled, refusing
as invalid."
