** Description changed:

  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/kbd/symbols/is" reads
+ 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.
