[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#524098: xserver-xorg: dependency on console-setup broke keyboard settings

[Valery V. Vorotyntsev]

Hi.

I've upgraded xserver-xorg (I run `testing'). It came with new dependencies
(hal, console-setup) and made my keyboard hardly usable. I was lucky enough
to find Gabor's bug report (thanks, Gabor!). I've commented out contents of
/usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/10osvendor/debian-x11-keymap.fdi and restarted hal
and gdm; now my keyboard is working properly.

Still, something needs to be done to this problem. I am sure there are more
frustrated users; xorg 1:7.4+4 hit `testing' just two days ago.

Cheers.
