Bug#286581: xlibs: Error in key definition for Dutch keyboards
Package: xlibs
Version: 4.3.0.dfsg.1-8
Severity: normal
Tags: l10n
Yesterday I created a new keyboard layout for console-data for keyboards
with a Dutch keymap (see #286401).
Denis Barbier checked my layout against the one for X and noticed an
inconsistency in de definition for keycode 86.
It seems that bracketleft and bracketright are switched in the
definition for X:
86 unshifted should be ]
86 shifted should be [
