ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Comment 1 Andrey 2023-05-07 09:08:52 UTC
Is "variant Sun Type 6/7" essential here?

> Is "variant Sun Type 6/7" essential here?

Honestly, I would be happy if it said just  "Romanian". I've no clue why it thinks it's "English (US)". I tried with other languages with variants but it displayed those fine.
Comment 3 Andrey 2023-05-07 10:26:56 UTC
I mean, if you skip variant Sun Type 6/7, does it show Romanian right?

I added the "Romanian (Windows)" layout and it shows fine.

Adding screenshot...

Comment 6 Andrey 2023-05-07 12:27:02 UTC
Thanks, what is the actual layout? Is it Romanian or English still?

If I select the Romanian layout that is shown as "English" the actual keyboard layout changes correctly and I can use the <<Alt Gr>> key to type characters like âășțî etc.

Today I was testing things with an X11 session. The bug does not happen. I switched to Wayland and there it was again.

Will attach screenshot.

Thanks, could you try to find out if some others layouts/variants expose the same problem?
