I didn't know about this release. To update my current version I tried "sudo apt upgrade xkb-data", but I don't think it worked. If I enter "apt-cache policy xkb-data" it shows me the following - xkb-data: Installed: 2.26-2 Candidate: 2.26-2 Version table: *** 2.26-2 500 500 http://deb.debian.org/debian buster/main amd64 Packages 500 http://deb.debian.org/debian buster/main i386 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status The latest version seems to be 2.30. Can you explain how to install this particular version with all necessary updates? _______________________________________________ xorg@lists.x.org: X.Org support Archives: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg Info: https://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg Your subscription address: %(user_address)s
