Package: x11-xkb-utils
Version: 7.5+2
Severity: minor

Hello,

I have two keybords, 10 is my typematrix and I want to specify a
different layout for it.

I define the following configuration:

~/.xkb/keymap/persotm:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
xkb_keymap {
        xkb_keycodes  { include "evdev+aliases(azerty)" };
        xkb_types     { include "complete"      };
        xkb_compat    { include "complete"      };
        xkb_symbols   { include "pc+fr(bepo)+inet(evdev)+ctrl(nocaps)+compose(menu)+terminate(ctrl_alt_bksp)+jpmods(muhenkan_mod3)+jpmods(henkan_ctrl)+jpmods(lwin_mod4)" };
        xkb_geometry  { include "typematrix(tm2030USB-106)"     };
};

--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

~/.xkb/symbols/jpmods
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
partial modifier_keys
xkb_symbols "muhenkan_mod3" {
  replace key <MUHE> {
    [ VoidSymbol, VoidSymbol ]
  };
  modifier_map Mod3 { <MUHE> };
};

partial modifier_keys
xkb_symbols "henkan_ctrl" {
  replace key <HENK> { [ VoidSymbol, VoidSymbol ] };
  modifier_map Control { <HENK> };
};

partial modifier_keys
xkb_symbols "lwin_mod4" {
  modifier_map Mod4 { <LWIN> };
};
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

and try:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
setxkbmap -device 10 -I/home/dad/.xkb/ -keymap persotm
X Error of failed request:  BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)
  Major opcode of failed request:  144 (XKEYBOARD)
  Minor opcode of failed request:  23 (XkbGetKbdByName)
  Serial number of failed request:  9
  Current serial number in output stream:  9
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

"xkbcomp -i 10 -I/home/dad/.xkb ~/.xkb/keymap/persotm $DISPLAY" works
but change the configuration for all keyboards.

It does not works even in two steps:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
xkbcomp -i 10 -I/home/dad/.xkb -xkb -o /home/dad/.xkb/persotm.xkb ~/.xkb/keymap/persotm
setxkbmap -v 10 -device 10 -I/home/dad/.xkb/ -config persotm.xkb
Setting verbose level to 10
locale is C
Didn't find file ./persotm.xkb
Didn't find file /usr/share/X11/xkb/persotm.xkb
Didn't find file /home/dad/.xkb/persotm.xkb
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Regards.

Closing this old bug.  I don't think there's an x11-xkb-utils issue
here (see also the followup), and configuration belongs in higher level
components.

Cheers,
Julien
