I am using only 3 languages, but there is much more to be selected. It would be useful to limit the number of keyboards to the list the user actually needs instead showing all.
Showing all keyboards is the right default setting, but it should be possible to select the few, which are used the most.

To be on the save side: when editing the /usr/share/maliit/plugins/com/jolla/layouts/layouts.conf just comment the unnecessary lines with "#", so it looks like this:
.........................
#[es.qml]
#name=Español
#languageCode=ES
#
#[fi.qml]
#name=Suomi
#languageCode=FI
#
............................
Then restart the mallit server: systemctl --user restart maliit-server.service
I am using this setup since 2 days, no issues here. I think there is request already here to implement this in UI.
Thanks Zlatko, this worked for me, but I used 'killall maliit-server' instead. I now have NO OTHER language options on my spacebar! Brilliant! :) Regards,

This could be very dangerous, so be prepared to brick your device. I did not test this and you should definitely let this confirm by someone more competent than me.
If you still read, you could try this:
Again: Do this on your own risk! I do not know what happens after a reboot!
Edit: The above stuff could not be that wrong, as there is a thread TMO describing just that: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=91917
In step 4: Shouldn't it be "cp" (copy) instead of "mv" (move/rename)?
An alternative way is shown in https://together.jolla.com/question/21510/howto-adapt-sailfish-virtual-keyboard-vkb-layout/#26365 (layouts.conf is only renamed but not edited)

Isn't that a duplicate of https://together.jolla.com/question/998/changing-keyboard-layout/ asked about 4 hours earlier?
