This is it indeed, although sed is not the culprit: dumpkeys attempts to convert the composed UTF-8 characters back to an 8-bit charset at which it defaults to iso-8859-1; loadkeys consequently fails to convert it back correctly. It should be okay for it to simply dump “compose '…' '…' to U+…” lines instead. This should make Pavel’s problem go away. All the best, -- Michael Schutte <mi...@uiae.at>
