Bug#621706: It was a system bug after all



Hi,

looks like a typo introduced while addressing fdo bug#6375:
  https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6375

I can provide upstream with a patch to fix this typo…

… unless you're absolutely certain this mapping should disappear, in
which case, please open a bug upstream and discuss that there:
  http://bugs.freedesktop.org/ (product: xkeyboard-config)

Please give us the bug URL so that we can track it.

Thanks already.

KiBi.
