Package: xlibs
Version: 4.3.0.dfsg.1-4
Severity: normal
Followup-For: Bug #250629
Hi,
This is a "me too" shout on this bug report. My AltGr also stopped
working after an upgrade.
I normally run testing, but after finding out about #250629, I
tried to dpkg --purge --force-depends xlibs and then remove
everything from /etc/X11/xkb except /etc/X11/xkb/compiled
and /etc/X11/xkb/xkbcomp. No luck.
Also tried "apt-get -o dpkg::options::="--force-confmiss" --reinstall
install xlibs" and restarting X as suggested in #235268.
Didn't help either.
Finally, I upgraded X, xlibs, etc. to unstable, again
without success.
This is the relevant output of xev:

My default window manager is fluxbox without Gnome or KDE running.
Also note that, if I start X as root, things work fine, although
I must say that, when I was experimenting around, at some point
X as root also didn't have a working AltGr. I think the upgrade
from xlibs from testing to unstable fixed that.
But for my regular user account, things are still not working.
Is there anything else I can try ?
