Spins should be added later. + + This is proper fix for https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2016613 where we found + that Wayland don't allow Anaconda to control keyboard configuration. The original fix + separated installation and current environment which is wrong because user can type + passwords with other keyboard layout than what will be installed. This solution will leave + the control on the system itself and just reads the configuration. + It is also a big step to resolve https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1955025 . + +:Links: + - https://github.com/rhinstaller/anaconda/pull/4976 + - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2016613 + - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1955025
