** Summary changed: - certain keyboard layouts irreparably broken in hardy; fix already in intrepid + Treatment of keysyms out of sync with dev files
** Description changed: This may be a serious problem for some users. Please see the associated Debian bug for details. Hopefully, this can find its way into hardy- updates. From #ubuntu-bugs: <RAOF> But now I'm not actually sure what 246850 is about - the upstream bug is only about finnish. <sn9> yes, because that's where the debian bug originator found the bug <RAOF> But what _is_ the bug? <RAOF> A sub-bug is that some compose sequences don't work with the finnish layout. <RAOF> What is the rest? <RAOF> And why isn't it documented in Launchpad :) <sn9> the bug is that updates to libx11's treatment of keysyms are out of sync with updates to the dev files <RAOF> Right. So, that should be the title of the bug. <sn9> it was an upstream screwup that was quickly corrected, but not before debian packaged it. debian soon fixed it, but it got into hardy <RAOF> I'm not arguing that it's not a bug. I'm suggesting ways that you can change your existing bug to make it more useful. And hence, more likely to be dealt with. <RAOF> This sort of information should be in the launchpad bug. <RAOF> The person who assesses it's SRU- <sn9> i could attach a transcript of what was just said <RAOF> That would be fine. + + The practical upshot of this is that some compose sequences are broken + in Hardy's Finnish layout, and apparently fixing bug 246834 will expose + some more broken compose sequences in the new mac keymap. -- Treatment of keysyms out of sync with dev files https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/246850 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
