Bug#397323: xkb-data: AltGr key not working anymore



Package: xkb-data
Version: 0.9-4
Severity: normal

Hello,

since the upgrade around October, 20th (I only performed it today), the AltGr
key does not produce third level symbols. Setup is as follows:
Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier      "Generic Keyboard"
        Driver          "kbd"
        Option          "CoreKeyboard"
        Option          "XkbRules"      "xorg"
        Option          "XkbModel"      "pc105"
        Option          "XkbLayout"     "be"
        Option          "XkbOptions"    "lv3:ralt_switch"
#       Option          "XkbCompat"     "pc"
EndSection

I added te XkbOptions after searching google on similar problems, as
well as XkbCompat. No change.

The Xorg.0.log contains around the end:

(II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "Generic Keyboard" (type: KEYBOARD)
    xkb_keycodes             { include "xfree86+aliases(azerty)" };
    xkb_types                { include "complete" };
    xkb_compatibility        { include "complete" };
    xkb_symbols              { include "pc(pc105)+be+level3(ralt_switch)" };
    xkb_geometry             { include "pc(pc105)" };
(WW) Couldn't load XKB keymap, falling back to pre-XKB keymap

I also noticed there was a few remaining dirs from the past:
/etc/X11/xkb, renaming it to xkb.orig didn't help either. Any hint ?
Which supplemental info should I provide ?

Best regards
