Here XFree86.log reported something about not being able to load the XKB
map. Pasting that exact line in Google gave me the following explanation:
Bugged keyboard alias file in xlibs-data (usually after an xlibs upgrade).
How I solved it:
dpkg -P --force-depends xbase-clients xlibs xlibs-data
rm -r /etc/X11/xkb
apt-get install xbase-clients xlibs xlibs-data
Now everything works as before and, actually, even better: Gswitchit
(a.k.a. GNOME Keyboard Preferences capplet) finally works.
