           Summary: us_intl layout maps apostrophe and quotedbl incorrectly
           Product: xorg
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: cvs
        AssignedTo: xorg-bugzilla-noise at freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: icon at linux.duke.edu


(Not sure if the component is selected correctly, please reassign to where it
should be).

It seems like all us_intl layouts in X are incorrect. For key 48
(apostrophe-quotedbl) it lists almost everywhere this order:

dead_acute dead_diaeresis apostrophe quotedbl

The correct order is:

apostrophe quotedbl dead_acute dead_diaeresis

You can verify here, for example:
http://www.csbsju.edu/mcl/resource/Use%20Int%20Keyboard.pdf

The chart clearly shows that dead_acute and dead_diaeresis are
supposed to be invoked with AltGr and AltGr-Shift. It doesn't really make much
sense for it to be otherwise, because dead keys are suddenly in the primary
place and typing a double quote becomes next to impossible without an emacs-ish
hand cramp. :)
