Was very frustrated, after trying Canada multilingual, multilingual 2, Canada French, etc. as the keyboard mappings were or are wrong in that the wrong characters were produced.

In desperation, I clicked on the gnome option to set defaults, When I looked at the consequences, the keyboard chosen was Canadian, and it erased the other two that I chose.

The keyboard is working as I was dreaming it should. The Euro symbol included. 

OK, is the title wrong for the keyboard?  Have I been choosing the wrong keyboard mapping because of titles?  Since I have a working keyboard, I am now left without a reason to complain and lots of happiness at having one buglet less in the system.

Hooray for the kboard fix. I don't care if it is called gronk, or canada, or canada french or whatever, it works.

By the way  setxkbmap "ca(fr)" works too now.
