Thanks for the reply.

I also found scattered sites proposing sth in the lines of:

You can make the setting persistent by creating and X config file 
in|/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/|  with the specific settings.

|Section "InputClass" Identifier "keyboard defaults" MatchIsKeyboard "on" Option "XkbModel" "x1carbon" Option "XkbLayout" "us,de" Option "XKbOptions" "" EndSection ps: the messages take a day+ to appear in the list .Is this technical issue? |

    I managed to create a custom xkb mapping using a home directory which
    contains a xkb keymap description (my-map-usgr-workman) and a symbols
    file and feeding those in xkbcomp:

    ~/.config/xkb$ tree
    .
    ├── my-map-usgr-workman
    ├── symbols
    │   ├── ergogr

    $ xkbcomp -I$HOME/.config/xkb my-map-usgr-workman  $DISPLAY

    My question is : What is the way to make those changes permanent
    during
    a reboot?.

    Some related guides i have found regarding on ways to create a new
    xkb
    layout or variant and how to enable those changes (two tasks that go
    together usually).

    - a couple of sites proposing the local folder way of enabling a
    new layout

    - a guide proposing to change xkb conf files directly in the system

    - a site that suggest to uphold the 11th commandment was "thou
    shalt not
    edit things in /usr/share"
