Bug: XFree86-etc-4.2.0-1 - /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb/symbols/us_intl ismissing commas.


Greetings.


I am reporting a bug in the file /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb/symbols/us_intl of package XFree86-etc-4.2.0-1. When one runs:


  $ setxkbmap.exe -rules xfree86 -model pc104 -layout us_intl
  Error loading new keyboard description

This is caused by commas missing in the file. When I copy the same file from the Red Hat 9 distribution, it works marvelously. When I perform a diff between the two files:

diff us_intl us_intl.cygwin.kaput
44c44
<     key <AE09> {      [         9,    parenleft       ],
---
>     key <AE09> {      [         9,    parenleft       ]
46c46
<     key <AE10> {      [         0,    parenright      ],
---
>     key <AE10> {      [         0,    parenright      ]
52c52
<     key <AC10> {      [ semicolon,    colon           ],
---
>     key <AC10> {      [ semicolon,    colon           ]
54c54
<     key <AB08> {      [     comma,    less            ],
---
>     key <AB08> {      [     comma,    less            ]
56c56
<     key <AB09> {      [    period,    greater         ],
---
>     key <AB09> {      [    period,    greater         ]
58c58
<     key <AB10> {      [     slash,    question        ],
---
>     key <AB10> {      [     slash,    question        ]

Notice that the cygwin version of the file is missing commas.

Here is my setting: I use XWin.exe to connect to my Red Hat 9 server using XDMCP. XFree86 version 4.3.0 is running on my Red Hat 9 server while XFree86 version 4.2.0 is running on my Windows machine under Cygwin. I do a "xhost +" on my RH9 server and I then start an rxvt session on Windows and call the command.
