Description Vaso 2011-04-08 12:07:58 UTC 
Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.6.1) 
OS:                Linux

There no any way to make extra keyboard layout to be accessible/visible in keyboard layout choice dialog.
So it is impossible to use KDE configuration tools to set an extra keyboard layout (such as Iran: Avestan; Lithuania: Dvorak; USA: International (AltGr Unicode combining|alternative), Atsina, Couer D'alene Salish; Romania: Ergonomic Touchtype; Serbia: Combining accents instead of dead keys; Russia: Church Slavonic; etc.).
GNOME can do this through the "load-extra-items" option.

Reproducible: Always
