Bug Description

The keyboard selection window has two entries for the Hausa language.

To reproduce:
* Click "Text Entry Settings".
* Click the +
* Scroll down to H

There are two entries with the identical name "Hausa". They should have different names so that it would be clear what is the difference between them.

Indeed, it should be corrected. I changed the affected package to xkeyboard-config and filed an upstream report.

Well, it will be included in xkeyboard-config 2.21, and we are on version 2.19 in Ubuntu at the moment. Possibly it will reach Ubuntu 17.10, but more likely you'll see the change only in Ubuntu 18.04.
