Actually, comparing with the version of xkb-data currently in Wheezy
(2.5.1-1), I notice that the symbols defined for the Kotoistus keymap
are the exact same as in Troy's version. Only the comments are
arranged differently. Thus, I'd really like to know if this bug
remains an issue and, if yes, exactly how? Otherwise, let's close it.
