[Bug 1946577] [NEW] In live-session, keyboard mapping does not match the chosen language [ FR ] [ impish ]

[Coeur Noir]

Public bug reported:

Hi,

Impish is on a ventoy USB thumb ( Budgie flavor ).

Live session boots fine, offering choice between « try » and « install
».

I chose my language ( french ) and click « try ».

The live session reads in French BUT the keyboard is QWERTY where I
expected AZERTY.

Actually French ( France ) and their matching regional settings are
missing in gnome-language-selector.

Once you installed your language from there, set it first in the list
and apply regional settings for whole system, then after logout / login,
the key mapping is finally correct.

Not very friendly ;-)
But to be honest, not new : I already had that surprise in previous trials with Xubuntu, Budgie, 18.04 and 20.04.

And this does not happen on « official » Ubuntu version - where AZERTY
mapping is set out of the box when French has been chosen.
