[Bug 575978] Re: Wrong keys in icelandic keyboard layout

 

This bug was fixed in the package xkeyboard-config - 2.16-1ubuntu1

---------------
xkeyboard-config (2.16-1ubuntu1) xenial; urgency=medium

  * Merge with Debian (LP: #1536385, #575978), remaining changes:
    - control, rules, xkb-data-i18n.install, xkb-data.install: Split out
      xkb-data-i18n to be used by console-setup.
    - xkb-data.postinst.in: Remove the xkb cache to make sure it gets
      regenerated.
  * Drop 105_intelligent_keyboard.patch, never made upstream and seems to
    be redundant by now anyway.

Title:
  Wrong keys in icelandic keyboard layout

Status in xkeyboard-config:
  Fix Released
Status in xkeyboard-config package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: xkeyboard-config

  The Icelandic keyboard layout currently has a key with a degree sign (°) and an umlaut/diaeresis sign (¨). The normal
  function of this key appears to be to compose with the next character to form "å" or "ä", but in Ubuntu (up to and
  including 10.04 - Lucid Lynx) the key produces the abovementioned signs by themselves.

  Line 26 in "/usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/is" reads

  key <TLDE>  { [    degree,  diaeresis,      notsign,      notsign ] };

  Changing this to

  key <TLDE>  { [    dead_abovering,  dead_diaeresis,      notsign,
  notsign ]    };

  Appears to fix the problem.
