[Xcb] [Bug 89560] New: xcb_xkb_get_kbd_by_name not working

[Christian Linhart]

XKB support in libxcb is rather unfinished and I'd say that it is not officially supported in that state.
It has many more bugs than that one.
Please do not use the XKB support from libxcb anywhere yet.

I already have prepared a working xml for XKB which will change a lot of things.
I will post that in the next weeks.
It requires some changes in the generator.
Fixing all the problems with XKB in libxcb will require incompatible changes.

Hope this clarifies the background of this problem.

Cheers,

Chris
