Bug#555968: xserver-xephyr: core keyboard loses keymap after the last client disconnects

[Sascha Silbe <sascha-debian-bugs-sugar-2@silbe.org>]

Package: xserver-xephyr
Version: 2:1.6.5-1
Severity: important


Xephyr looses the keymap after the "last" (potentially first) client exits. This breaks sugar-emulator: keyboard shortcuts won't work since the key specifications can't be parsed.
This issue has been reported upstream at [1-2]. There's an unverified patch available at [2]; also it seems to be fixed in 1.7.0.
