Re: Bug#516391: qwertz-de: apostrophe instead of acute on keycode 0x0d



Quoting Jörg Sommer (joerg@alea.gnuu.de):

Well, that bug report was indeed not about changing the whole German
console keymaps....but just fixing a glitch in one of them (probably
the less used one: de.kmap).

I'm quite conservative about such changes: these keymaps now in some
way carved in stone by years of use in the Linux community....so
changing some of the most used ones (de-latin1 and
de-latin1-nodeadkeys) makes me feel uncomfortable...
