Title:
  keyboard switches to Arabic after jaunty upgrade

Status in “console-setup” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: console-setup

  I installed jaunty (fresh install) from the jaunty beta, i386 CD
  image. Initial reboot after install worked fine. After updating to the
  latest packages, on next reboot the login screen only typed in Arabic.
  Switching vterms to the console also didn't type in English (garbage
  characters). Booting a live CD and mounting the install media revealed
  that /etc/default/console-setup had changed XKBLAYOUT to af. Changing
  it back to us made the installed system work on next boot.

  Fix was found in this forum thread:
