Bug#514975: xkb-data: Keyboard unuseable with version 1.5-2

2009-02-12 Thread Martin H. Thomas
Package: xkb-data
Version: 1.4-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable



-- System Information:
Debian Release: 5.0
  APT prefers unstable
  APT policy: (500, 'unstable')
Architecture: i386 (i686)

Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-1-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core)
Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US (charmap=ISO-8859-1)
Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash

-- no debconf information

 I upgraded from xkb-data 1.4-1 to 1.5-2. From there on I couldn't use
 my keyboard under X any longer. Every keystroke activated the
 scroll-lock LED which had to be switched off again by another
 keystroke. It seemed to me as if a Ctrl-key was permanently pressed in the
 background. I suppose this has something to do with the level-5
 modifiers, but even when I commented the respective lines out, I was
 unable to fix the effect. I had to force a downgrade to the old
 version again.

please attach your full x log and config (with xkb-data 1.5).
what versions of libx11-6 and x11-xkb-utils are installed?

Cheers,
Julien
