My goal is to use a french AZERTY keyboard layout with Arch linux and Gnome desktop environment but use US English as "OS language".
Note that I am also open to a "working" solution on any other desktop environment than Gnome as long as I can run a GUI web browser with it.
## Attempts
During the install I just done:
```bash
loadkeys fr-latin1
```
And everything was fine (i.e. the keyboard layout instantaneously changed correctly).
But after the install, during first boot of the OS, I noted that the keyboard was set to "QWERTY" when I tried to log in my user session.
I tried a lot things, like the below commands, but it seems that "nothing" append:
```bash
loadkeys fr-latin1
setxkbmap fr
localectl set-x11-keymap fr
localectl set-keymap fr-latin1
```
The content of `/etc/X11/xorg.conf.f/00-keyboard.conf` is currently
```bash
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "system-keyboard"
MatchIsKeyboard "on"
Option "XkbLayout" "fr"
Option "XkbModel" "pc105"
Option "XkbVariant" "latin1"
EndSection
```
But the keyboard layout remains in QWERTY...

## Additional materials

In `/etc/locale.gen` file, only these 4 lines are uncommented:
```bash
en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8
en_US ISO-8859-1
fr_FR.UTF-8 UTF-8
fr_FR ISO-8859-1
```
Output of `locale-gen` command:
```bash
Generating locales...
en_US.UTF-8... done
en_US ISO-8859-1... done
fr_FR.UTF-8... done
fr_FR ISO-8859-1... done
Generation complete.
```
`LANG` variable created with:
```bash
echo LANG=en_US.UTF-8 > /etc/locale.conf
export LANG=en_US.UTF-8
```
N.B. I use a fresh install of Arch, so I can reinstall it easily if necessary.
