Bug#627367: xkb-data: Upgrade from 1.8 to 2.1 adds deadkeys to dvorak-intl
Package: xkb-data
Version: 2.1-2
Severity: normal
In commit b611a52d8 upstream kindly renamed dvorak-intl (which did not have
dead keys) to dvorak-alt-intl. dvorak-intl now has dead keys, so upgrades from
1.8 or earlier to 2.1 will switch the user's keyboard behaviour.
On upgrade from <= 1.8 we should transition users from dvorak-intl to
dvorak-alt-intl.
See also https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xkeyboard-config/+bug/742683,
but I've verified this also affects Debian by upgrading an oldstable chroot to
wheezy.
