Keyboard error ('<' key stops working) after dist-upgrade, possible XFree86 issue




Hi,

I am unsure if this is the right list, its the best I came up with to report
this issue to. (no pseudo-package and I cannot identify which package caused
it).


After dist-upgrading a Debian/sid three weeks ago, on a IBM Thinkpad R40,
the '<' key stopped working, as if it is a dead key. All other keys,
including my German umlaut setup work. Also, on the console, the '<' key
continues to work. Besides Eterm I also tested xterm, with all the same
dead-key behaviour, so it seems to be an Xfree issue.

Has this problem been previously reported? (Googling did not find anything)
How to further circle down the origin of this bug and which package I should
assign a bug report to? (I do not have the old .deb archives anymore, else I
could selectively downgrade).


ciao,
Sebastian
