4.351. xkeyboard-config

An updated xkeyboard-config package that fixes one bug and adds two enhancements is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.
The xkeyboard-config package provides the xkeyboard-config alternative xkb data files.

Bug Fix

BZ#638612
Prior to this update, duplicate mapping for the backslash key caused the Indic Onscreen Keyboard (IOK) to exit with a segmentation fault when the Hindi Wx mapping was selected. This update modifies the mapping so that IOK no longer exits unexpectedly.

Enhancements

BZ#651774
With this update, the Unicode Rupee symbol is now included in the Indic keyboard layouts.
BZ#713863
This update upgrades the xkeyboard-config data files to upstream version 2.3.
All users of xkeyboard-config are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which addresses this bug and adds these enhancements.
