Bug Description

During the installation of Kubuntu Desktop amd64 (Jammy 22.04.2) on an Lenovo ThinkPad X201 and Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga 460 with german QWERTZ keyboard layout the English/English layout was selected by default.

Correct was German/German.

I used the the following build:

This is just a minor inconvenience.

To clarify, I could select the right one and had no problems after that.

I tested multiple testcases with the same installation media and a network connection and the bug disappeared. In the last few installations, the keyboard layout was recognized correctly as german/german.

Maybe Canonical has an online database and all my installations today submitted an entry for my models?

The correct keyboard layout is now also picked up during an offline installation. Installation-media and hardware hasn't changed :/
