Created attachment 6523 Part of a screenshot showing garbled label With the $LANG set to uk_UA.KOI8-U I get most of the interface of Xfce4 in Ukrainian, which is great. But the xkb-plugin fails to convert its keyboard-layout labels from Unicode to KOI8-U, which results in perfectly unreadable (in any language) labels -- see attachment for an illustration. One can still figure things out by the flags displayed, but not by the labels.
I have the same problem. When do you plan to solve this problem?
Viktor Odintsev referenced this bugreport in commit 36a6e59403cb9c9b9b51c46b8d6b9f065841c585 Bug 12294: Use local charset for layout names https://git.xfce.org/panel-plugins/xfce4-xkb-plugin/commit?id=36a6e59403cb9c9b9b51c46b8d6b9f065841c585
Patch works for me. Thanks!
Created attachment 7167 Version of the patch for 0.7.1 Victor's diff would not apply to 0.7.1 -- the last _released_ version of the XKB-plugin. Here is, what I ended up applying instead -- and, yes, it does work for me too...

I did my own patch for xfce4-xkb-plugin version 0.7.1 on FreeBSD, which was based on this patch :)

The file I posted came straight out of my own /usr/ports/deskutils/xfce4-xkb-plugin/files/ :) But I wanted to give Victor et al a chance to comment on the patch's validity Will you file the FreeBSD PR -- to have the patch added to our port until a new release of the plugin is made available?.. Дякую...

(In reply to Mikhail T. from comment #6) > But I wanted to give Victor et al a chance to comment on the patch's validity Your patch seems correct and it should fix the problem on 0.7.1. I'm going to release a new version soon.
Fixed in 0.8.0
