Package: xkb-data (0.9-4)

X Keyboard Extension (XKB) configuration data

This package contains configuration data used by the X Keyboard Extension (XKB), which allows selection of keyboard layouts when using a graphical interface.

Every X11 vendor provides its own XKB data files, so keyboard layout designers have to send their layouts to several places. The xkeyboard-config project has been launched at FreeDesktop in order to provide a central repository that could be used by all vendors. This package comes from xkeyboard-config, and thus conflicts with and replaces the xlibs package which is part of the XFree86 server.
