symbols: fix real/alias key merge ordering bug Background: The CopySymbolsDef has a comment on a couple of lines which supposedly fixed a bug: /* * kt_index[i] may have been set by a previous run (if we have two * layouts specified). Let's not overwrite it with the ONE_LEVEL * default group if we dont even have keys for this group anyway. * * FIXME: There should be a better fix for this. */ if (!darray_empty(groupi->levels)) key->kt_index[i] = types[i]; But neither the comment nor the fix make any sense, because the kt_index is indexed per group, i.e. each group gets its own type. The original xkbcomp commit which added this (36fecff58) points to this bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=436626 which complains about -layout "ru,us" -variant "phonetic," not working properly. And indeed when we try: sudo ./test/interactive -l ru,us -v the first group doesn't get any syms for the main keys. The problem (Clearly the fix above is useless): The ru(phonetic) map is specified using aliases, e.g. LatQ, LatW instead of AD01, AD02, etc. When combined with another layout which uses the real names (AD01, AD02), the symbols code should recognize they are the same key and merge them into one KeyInfo. The current code does that, but it doesn't catch the case where the alias was processes *before* the real one; so we get two KeyInfo's and the later one wins. So e.g. the ru(phonetic) symbols are ignored. The fix: Before adding a new KeyInfo to the keys array, always replace its name by the real name, which avoids the entire issue. Luckily this is done pretty late so most error messages should still show the alias name. Signed-off-by: Ran Benita <ran234@gmail.com>
