QWERTY variant of Slovak keybaord---missing?
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----

Hello,
Occassionally, I need to use Slovak keyboard layout. I (and I guess many if not most Slovaks) are
used to QWERTY rather than QWERTZ.
Previous Debian versions included this file:
/usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/sk_qwerty
so that within
/etc/X11/xorg.conf
I could make use of it as follows:
Option "XkbLayout" "us,sk_qwerty"
Option "XkbOptions" "grp:menu_toggle,grp_led:scroll"
But `sk_qwerty' file disappeared? Is this an ommision or some purpose? I see only
/usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/sk
which is QWERTZ. Am I right?
The difference between these two files is small:
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------
debian:/usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols$ diff sk_qwerty sk
1c1
< // $XKeyboardConfig: xkbdesc/symbols/sk,v 1.8 2005-01-16 02:18:20 svu Exp $
- ---
> // $XKeyboardConfig: xkbdesc/symbols/sk,v 1.8 2005/01/16 02:18:20 svu Exp $
36c36
< key <AD06> { [ y, Y, NoSymbol, NoSymbol ] };
- ---
> key <AD06> { [ z, Z, NoSymbol, NoSymbol ] };
61c61
< key <AB01> { [ z, Z, degree, NoSymbol ] };
- ---
> key <AB01> { [ y, Y, degree, NoSymbol ] };
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------
but it is worth to have both variants (I am not sure about QWERTZ though, but I am certainly for
QWERTY variant for sure).
The changes are somehow related to transition from
http://packages.debian.org/etch/xkb-data-legacy
to
http://packages.debian.org/etch/xkb-data
Should I report this as a (minor) bug of `xkb-data' or did I misunderstood something?
Best regards,
