The UK keysms in xkb/symbols/macintosh/gb doesn't define all of the keys on the British server. Debian has a patch to fix this: Fix a few problems with the U.K. Macintosh keyboard layout: * Map <TLDE> key to "section, plusminus". * Map <LSGT> key to "quoteleft, asciitilde". * Map AltGr+<AE02> to "EuroSign". * Include group(switch) symbols so that the already-defined mapping of AltGr+<AE03) to "numbersign" can be used. Attaching the patch they use, which I can confirm is working excellently without any modifications on my new Apple UK USB keyboard. (apologies for the vague product/component, there are quite a few...)
Created attachment 3971 [details] [review] Patch http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=201737 is the rather long-winded story of how Debian eventually matched Apple in the behaviour of the keyboard.
Ross, is this patch still relevant and required for xkeyboard-config? Could you please confirm?
Created attachment 7245 [details] [review] Add Euro sign to 2 Sergey, the only missing bit now is the EuroSign on key 2. Here is a patch.
Created attachment 7248 [details] [review] Fixed patch Oops, EuroSign was misspelt.
Happy to commit it. But look what we came to - duplicated code, double patches. Sad, isn't it?;)
Committed anyway
