[gentoo-user] Keyboard layouts missing

[gentoo-user] Keyboard layouts missing

[Rafael Barrera Oro]

Hello everyone, i installed a Gentoo AMD64 2006.0 with a LiveCD using 
the precompiled modular kde-meta 3.4.3 packages and (though my xorg is 
not modular). The thing is i went to the control center to change my 
keyboard layout and noticed that there are none available. At first i 
thought i needed to install kde-i18n, but now i am having second 
thoughts since its not a package that belongs to the modular kde, is 
there a kde-i18n-meta or something like that? i could not find it.

Anyway, thanks in advance for your help

What do you missing?
Control center? Your language? No keyboard option?

If you are missing control center is kcontrol.
If you miss your language, you need to set it in LINGUAS option 
in /etc/make.conf.
If you have no keyboard option, you need kxkb.

I have re emerged kxkb successfully but there are still no keyboard 
layouts available in the KDE control center regional settings. Any ideas?

Did you relogin to KDE?  If you did, and it's still not there, which 
Xorg are you using?  Post the output of 'emerge -pv xorg-x11'.  And 
if you use anything out of the ordinary, 'emerge --info' too.  And 
for good measure 'emerge -pe world | grep kde'.

Do you see the files under /usr/lib/X11/xkb?

An strace of kcontrol on my system shows that KDE looks for the xkb
mappings at /etc/X11/xkb/. On my system /etc/X11/xkb is a symlink to
/usr/lib/X11/xkb.  Do you have the same?
