Bug#387320: xkb-data: [Finnish symbols] macron to dead_macron



Package: xkb-data
Version: 0.8-7
Severity: normal

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

The symbols for Finnish currently include a macron as AltGr+Shift+minus. 
This key is useless for the intended purpose, which is to enable writing 
accented vowels used in Baltic languages. Fixing it requires making it a 
deadkey, which is what the enclosed patch does.

NOTE: this issue also exists in 0.8-7ubuntu2 (Edgy) where a similar but 
not identical file is at /etc/X11/xkb/symbols/fi (in Etch 0.8-7 it's at 
/usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/fi instead). The enclosed patch is against 
the 0.8-7 version in Etch.
