Just to let everybody know:
The issue with the keymap setting has now been resolved upstream.
Taijian commented on 2026-03-08 15:46 (UTC) (edited on 2026-03-11 15:13 (UTC) by Taijian)
ATTENTION:
with the latest upstream commit, plymouth will support a non-US keyboard layout ONLY if XKBLAYOUT=<your local keymap> is set in /etc/vconsole.conf.
Previously, setting KEYMAP= would also work, but this is no longer the case.
Be warned!

@earlybird: Could you please clarify which parts of the package you believe to be out of date?
earlybird commented on 2025-03-18 07:24 (UTC)
please update pkgbuild

ZhangHua commented on 2023-06-18 02:28 (UTC) (edited on 2023-06-18 09:25 (UTC) by ZhangHua)
Please consider adding add_full_dir "/usr/share/X11/xkb" in plymouth.initcpio_install, this is required for plymouth when XKBLAYOUT is set in /etc/vconsole.conf and you are using a systemd based initramfs.
Also, according to its meson.build, libxkbcommon is required by it. Althouth gtk3 also depends on libxkbcommon, gtk3 is a optional depends for plymouth so libxkbcommon may need to be set explicitly in plymouth's depends.
Edit: Maybe
(
[[ -s /etc/vconsole.conf ]] && . /etc/vconsole.conf
[[ -n $XKBLAYOUT ]] && add_full_dir '/usr/share/X11/xkb'
)
is more suitable, it only adds xkb folder when XKBLAYOUT is set in /etc/vconsole.conf

@pavelgs, no, it's not a typo, ash is the shell from busybox, which is used in initramfs. Check out the rest of /usr/lib/initcpio/hooks/* files.
