Just had a look at the KB page and noticed that the last paragraph ("To properly do this without an error, ...") is a bit misleading when it comes under the "Use Keyman for Linux to install the .kmp keyboard package" section header. We should either move that paragraph above the section header, or add a new section header above this paragraph. |

| Disregard the error: `"TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'description')"`, as the compiler will already have created the .kmp file in the `build` | ||

| To properly do this without an error, you'll have to add some additional fields to the .kps file. It's easiest to let the `kmconvert` tool generate a template which will contain all necessary the fields: | ||

| ```bash | ||
| kmconvert template -id mykeyboard |
