The keyboard indicator exits immediately when launched in arctica-greeter with: PANIC: No system XkbLayout found.

This can be observed on openSUSE 15.5.

This issue was related to an empty /etc/default/keyboard file. The parser should report better what the currently problem is and it should esp. not crash.

Furthermore, if /etc/default/keyboard does not deliver proper results, we should maybe fallback to /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/00-keyboard.conf and see if that works better.
