Package: xlibs
Version: 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4
After upgrade xlibs from version 6.8.2 to version 6.9.0, layout
czsk (that I use) stops function.
~$ setxkbmap -model pc104 -layout czsk -print | xkbcomp -w0
-I/etc/X11/xkb - :0 Error: No Symbols named
"shift_toggle" in the include file "group"
Exiting
Abandoning symbols file "def_basic"
Abandoning symbols file "us_cz_prog"
Abandoning symbols file "basic"
Abandoning symbols file "(null)"
Error: success in unknown
Couldn't write keyboard description to :0
When I found in /etc/X11/xkb/symbols/group, that there is
group(shifts_toggle) and then I changed it in
/etc/X11/xkb/symbols/czsk from include"group(shift_toggle)" to
include"group(shifts_toggle)", since it is OK.

Hi,
as explained by private mail, the czsk layout has been removed because
it was a combinartion of 2 groups, you have to use 2 layouts instead,
as in the example above. I am thus closing this bug, thanks for your
report.
