Fresh Arch/KDE 4.5. install - missing keyboard layout indicator (flag)

Hi,
I completed a fresh Arch 64b/KDE 4.5.1 net install, and fully updated my system.
Although I've both English (default) and Hebrew languages installed, the keyboard layout indicator (flag) is missing from the system tray, nor can I find a way to add it (KDE's System settings does NOT included a keyboard layout application as it had in older KDE versions).
Please advise!

=========copy of my /etc/locale.gen=========
en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8 
en_US ISO-8859-1 
he_IL.UTF-8 UTF-8 
he_IL ISO-8859-8 
======================================

Thanks


Best regards,
Michael Badt

This is strange, there actually is a systemsettings module for internationalization which includes keyboard la
yout.

If it is not present on your system, it might be because you haven't installed all necessary kde packages.
Unfortunately I'm not at home right now, I can't tell you exactly where is the keyboard layout among systemsettings modules.

You can check System Settings > Input Devices > Keyboard > Layouts

There is Show layout and show flag options.

If it's not there.. then i don't know what you are missing.

Hi, After upgrading (last night), The keyboard layout indicator is missing! I checked my setting and Show Layout Indicator is checked in system settings, If i check "Show for single layout" the indicator is shown in system tray, but only English layout is listed there (I have two layouts listed in Input devices ->keyboard->Layouts , English and Persian ).

Thanks in advance
