Topic

Updated xkeyboard-config packages that fix two bugs are now available for Red
Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

The xkeyboard-config packages contain configuration data used by the X keyboard
Extension (XKB), which allows selection of keyboard layouts when using a
graphical interface.

This update fixes the following bugs:

  • With the previous upgrade to upstream version 2.11, the

/usr/share/X11/xkb/keymap.dir file was removed from the xkeyboard-config
packages. Consequently, X11 keyboard configuration stopped working for NX
connections. This update includes the missing file again, and as a result, the
broken functionality is restored. (BZ#923160)

  • The previous upgrade to upstream version 2.11 also remapped three keys in the

Russian phonetic keyboard layout: the "x" key was mapped to "ha", "h" to "che",
and "=" to the soft sign. This change caused problems to users who expected the
usual layout of the phonetic keyboard. Now, the layout has been fixed, and these
keys are correctly mapped to the soft sign, "ha", and "che" respectively.
(BZ#1164507)

Users of xkeyboard-config are advised to upgrade to these updated packages,
which fix these bugs.

Solution

Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata relevant
to your system have been applied.
