 Right, it looks like we did not check carefully enough and some unwanted
 changes have been introduced.

By the way, I accidentally stumbled upon a similar issue that happened
before: #236604. There could be more, too.

It would help if you could keep a reminder somewhere in the back of your
head to get one or both of these things done:

* implement some sort of regression testing for the keyboard layouts
* make sure people using some layouts are notified when something happens
  in an upper-level layout (template)

That will go a long way in preventing these kinds of errors in the future.
Thanks. In advance. :)

 Oh, right.
 
 Ok, I will then forward this new patch to upstream.  Please file another
 bug report later if you believe that the TLDE key has to be modified.

Okay, that works. Thanks.

BTW, a note on organization of files. It seems to me that the upstream went
generalizing, and created a new file cs (country code for Serbia and
Montenegro), and then went on to base ba, hr and si on it because the
layouts are mostly equal.

While such a condensation was probably a decent idea since it makes the
files more logical, it was probably the root of this whole problem.
Since cs(cyralpha) includes its own version of level3 which is more like
English, this change propagated into hr, si, ba so that they now started
to have AltGr'ed keys like on an English keyboard, which is incorrect.

Another problem cropped up earlier this year, when the state union of
Serbia and Montenegro ceased to exist. This made their provisional country
code (cs) defunct, too. So the file name will need to be changed anyway.

The commonality in keyboards between Slovenian, Croatian, Bosnian and
Serbian (Latin) alphabets can be grouped under the linguistically recognized
grouping called the Western branch of the South Slavic languages. Perhaps
the common file should be called wsslavic?

On related note, the optimization/generalization should also encompass
cz(basic) and sk(basic) which differ in only six keys, and could be
similarly merged.

 I would just like that shift+TLDE remains mapped to tilde so I could get

That's like it is with the latest version of Denis' patch. I concur too.

  The compose functionality is nifty, I agree, but it's simply not a feature
  of the standard Croatian keyboard layout and should be relegated back to an

 According to symbols/hr this is not compose, but deadkeys functionality.
 See symbols/cs lines 153-165 (AE01-AE12). Columns 3 (altgr/ralt) and 4
 (altgr/ralt+shift) should be swaped.
 
 Denis, please redefine the whole row then (AE01 - AE12), not just 1,3,5 and 7.

That would be fine by me, presuming this is what fully restores the layout
to the one from old X.

Curiously enough, only some of those keys act the old way under MS Windows.

 That would be fine by me, presuming this is what fully restores the layout

symbols/pc/hr used to define

  key AE09  { [ 9, parenright,   dead_acute,   apostrophe ] };
  key AE10  { [ 0,  equal, dead_doubleacute, doubleacute ] };
  key AE11  { [apostrophe,   question, dead_diaeresis,  diaeresis ] };
  key AE12  { [  plus,   asterisk, dead_cedilla,  cedilla ] };

3rd and 4th levels are now defined in symbols/cs(level3)
  key AE01 {   [ any,any, dead_tilde,  asciitilde  ]   };
  key AE02 {   [ any,any, dead_caron,  caron   ]   };
  key AE03 {   [ any,any, dead_circumflex, asciicircum ]   };
  key AE04 {   [ any,any, dead_breve,  breve   ]   };

That's true, but I can't see any good reason for having deadkeys mixed in
3rd and 4th level.
In my opinion it's logical to have one level (4th in this case) composed
solely of deadkeys. It's easier to remember.

That idea is lacking for several reasons - first of all, that file is now in
/usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/hr, and is no longer marked as a configuration
file. Secondly, the fix would only affect my machine, and not all the others
where people also expect the old behaviour to continue working.

Ah, you just redefined them the hard way around. I guess that will work.

You missed the 7 key. AE07? That one had the backtick (`) with AltGr.

I can't test AB10 because I have a pc101 :)

I have mixed feelings about the key TLDE (the one left of 1).

The key is very rarely used because both in MS Windows and in X it has the
meaning of cedilla/diaeresis, and the Croatian alphabet does not include
these diacritics. Granted, if someone wants to type e.g. German or Turkish
words, it's useful. Otherwise, it's useless.

On my old keyboard, which dates from 1993 and has both English and Croatian
engravings on it (the good old days :), the engravings on the left hand
side of that key are ~/` for English, and on the right hand side they are
_/- for Croatian. I think that's actually a mistake, since the actual common
_/- is on the key just left of my right shift key. But it probably
illustrates how confusing that key is on the Croatian keyboard layout. :)

We should probably make some sort of a poll on linux.hr to figure out if
that key's worth changing to the English version...

 Hi Josip,

 /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/hr does not contain any such definition, this
 is a configuration problem on your side.  Can you please check?
 
 I don't understand what you are saying. If you have a PC keyboard with AltGr,
 what happens once you run 'setxkbmap hr' and then type AltGr+3?


You can get tilde with shift and that key left of 1/!.

If you want to go back, just add:

key AE01  { [ 1, exclam,   asciitilde,   dead_tilde ] };

after include cs(latin) in your symbols/hr. It should look like this:

xkb_symbols basic {
name[Group1]=Croatia;
include cs(latin)
key AE01  { [ 1, exclam,   asciitilde,   dead_tilde ] };
};
[...]



Regards,

Vedran Furač



Bug#379292: xkb-data hr layout broke the normal AltGr+numbers behaviour

 Hi,
 
 On a standard Croatian keyboard, the AltGr (right Alt) key is not used as
 a compose key in combination with the second row of the qwertz keyboard.
 
 This change annoys me to no end, because right now in order for me to get
 the characters tilde (~) or caret (^) I have to make three keypresses
 instead of two like everywhere else.
 
 The change needs to be reverted and the compose thing relegated to an
 option. I'll try to find a way to patch this and submit it.
