The XKB data files are conffiles, meaning that they are not always
unpacked to the system exactly as shipped; dpkg tries to respect local
customizations.

If you reinstall xlibs with the command:

# dpkg --install --force-confnew --force-confmiss xlibs_4.3.0-7_i386.deb

...does the file suddenly add the missing line?
