Bug#1063728: keyboard-configuration: format of XKBOPTIONS not specified



Package: keyboard-configuration
Version: 1.226
Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,

/etc/default/keyboard refers to "the keyboard(5) manual page", which
says:
  XKBOPTIONS
    Specifies the XKB keyboard option components. Options usually
    relate to the behavior of the special keys (<Shift>, <Control>,
    <Alt>, <CapsLock>, etc.) Default: not set.

This does not say how multiple options should be separated.  Luckily,
there are examples suggesting the value can be a comma-separated list
with no whitespace.

The actual expectations should be stated explicitly, and the same goes
for XKBVARIANT.

- Michael
