Package: console-setup Version: 1.201 Tags: patch The ckbcomp command emits unicode symbols greater than 0xf000 in keymaps, even if the linux kernel does not support those. This prevents the fr-bepo_afnor keymap from working (see bug #968195).
The attached patch fixes ckbcomp so that it can generate proper keymaps. Regards, Anisse

These values aren't supported by the linux kernel, so loadkeys won't be able to load them, or even parse the value. Skip those symbols to generate valid keymaps.
