In Guix, I may create a personal version of the package that provides the symbols, and add the ones I use. Kind regards, Felix Lechner ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread

I have a package that offers a layout, but simply throwing it under share/X11/xkb/symbols/ is mostly useless since setxkbmap is built with the xkeyboard-config path hard-coded in. Cheers, B.
