Package: xlib6g
Version: 3.3.2.3a-11

Included is a patch, enabling a new XkbSymbol type, which can be
activated with (from /etc/X11/XF86Config):

    XkbSymbols  "sun/us(sun5pc)"

The patch is to the file /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb/symbols/sun/us.  This
fixes the keyboard (notably, the Alt keys) for those poor souls like
myself who use a PC101 keyboard thru an AT->Sun5 keyboard adapter.
(Well, to explain myself, I have 3 computers sharing one keyboard and
monitor.)

The included patch isn't quite right, but it's functional.  It should
probably be forwarded upstream.
