Hi, I wanted to have this patch for some releases now and finally found time now to work on it this week.

(Also attached to https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1021907)

Short summary is that this changes the display of keyboard layouts from "English (English (US))" to "English (US)", ie it avoids the unnecessary repetition.

The final patch is actually quite simple, almost simpler than the current code perhaps. It checks is if the translated xkb layout description starts with translation of the language and if so just displays the translated description, otherwise it displays "lang (description)" as now.

I feel this makes the layout display less confusing and easier to read so I hope this small patch could be reviewed and accepted for Fedora 20.

I have tested it pretty carefully for most of the major languages and it seems to work well.

Thanks, Jens
