Title:
  gurmukhi keyboard missing addak (U+0A71)

Status in “xkeyboard-config” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “xkeyboard-config” source package in Hardy:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: xkb-data

  
  The keyboard layout for India Gurmukhi is missing "addak" character (unicode: 0x1000A71).

  According to Inscript layout, Shift+3 should type this character
  (http://guca.sourceforge.net/typography/keyboardlayouts/inscript/shift.png).

  Modifying line number 986 of /etc/X11/xkb/symbols/in file in Hardy to the following should fix this problem.
        key <AE03> { [      0x1000A69, 0x00000A71             ]       };

  
  1) This bug is in package xkb-data

  3) With this problem, a user cannot type a document in Gurmukhi (or
  Punjabi) completely.

  Warm regards.
