[Pkg-xfce-devel] Bug#509728: xfce4-xkb-plugin: breaks the second layout on certain combinations

[Andrei Popescu]

Package: xfce4-xkb-plugin
Version: 0.4.3-1
Severity: important

Hello,

If I have a combination like "de,gb,ro" in xorg conf, after switching 
layouts the second (and only the second) one will be broken, as in some 
keys will behave as if AltGr is pressed [for example "l" will generate 
"ł" (lstroke)].

Strangely this doesn't happen if "us" is the first layout, even with the 
"intl" variant (which seems to be more similar to "de" and "gb").

Also using setxkbmap will work around this issue, but then the plugin 
stops working completely (maybe this should be a separate bug).

Please contact me if you need more info.

Regards,
Andrei
