I think /usr/share/X11/xkb/ is fairly common, and newer distros should have
.pc files
the problem of parsing /usr/share/X11/xkb/rules/base.xml is that the
location of the file may vary from distribution to distribution
according to the prefix.
anyway since the manual is supposed to change syntax I will go that way...
I'll probably implement a procedure to locate the base.xml file

If you're trying to parse them, why not use the original files such as
/usr/share/X11/xkb/rules/base.xml instead of the man page that's generated

man page, which can change at any time, since we don't expect people to try

Hi, is there a way from command line to retrieve the list of all available
keyboard layouts and relative variants?
I need to list all the available layout/variants choices to be used then
from setxkbmap.
Also about the layout toggle options, is there a way to retrieve a list of
all available choi
