<summary>Recommended update for libxkbcommon</summary>
<description>
This update for libxkbcommon fixes the following issues:
- Update to release 1.3.0 (jsc#SLE-24272)
* `xkbcli list` was changed to output YAML instead of a
custom format.
* Fix segmentation fault in case-insensitive
`xkb_keysym_from_name` for certain values like the empty
string.
- Update to release 1.2.1 [boo#1184688]
* Fix `xkb_x11_keymap_new_from_device()` failing when the
keymap contains key types with missing level names, like the
one used by the `numpad:mac` option in xkeyboard-config.
(Regressed in 1.2.0.)
- Update to release 1.2.0
* `xkb_x11_keymap_new_from_device()` is much faster. It now
performs only 2 roundtrips to the X server, instead of dozens
(in first-time calls).
* Case-sensitive `xkb_keysym_from_name()` is much faster.
* Keysym names of the form `0x12AB` and `U12AB` are parsed more
strictly.
* Compose files now have a size limit (65535 internal nodes).
* Compose table loading (`xkb_compose_table_new_from_locale()`
and similar) is much faster.
- Update to release 1.1.0
* Update keysym definitions to latest xorgproto. In particular,
this adds many special keysyms corresponding to Linux evdev
keycodes.
* New XKB_KEY_* definitions.
- Update to release 1.0.3
* Fix (hopefully) a segfault in xkb_x11_keymap_new_from_device()
in some unclear situation (bug introduced in 1.0.2).
* Fix keymaps created with xkb_x11_keymap_new_from_device() do
not have level names (bug introduced in 0.8.0).
- Update to release 1.0.2
* Fix a bug where a keysym that cannot be resolved in a keymap
gets compiled to a garbage keysym. Now it is set to
XKB_KEY_NoSymbol instead.
* Improve the speed of xkb_x11_keymap_new_from_device() on
repeated calls in the same xkb_context().
- Update to release 1.0.1
* Make the table output of `xkbcli how-to-type` aligned.
- Update to release 1.0.0
* Now it is possible to add custom layouts and options at the
system (/etc) and user (~/.config) level, at least when
libxkbcommon is in use.
* libxkbregistry is a C library that lists available XKB
models, layouts and variants for a given ruleset. This is a
separate library (.so/.pc files) and aimed at tools that
provide a listing of available keyboard layouts to the user.
* Add an `xkbcli` command-line utility.
- Update to release 0.10.0
* Fix quadratic complexity in the XKB file parser.
* Add $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/xkb to the default search path. If
$XDG_CONFIG_HOME is not set, $HOME/.config/xkb is used. If
$HOME is not set, the path is not added. The XDG path is
looked up before the existing default search path $HOME/.xkb.
* Add support for include statements in XKB rules files.
* Fix bug where the merge mode only applied to the first vmod
in a "virtual_modifiers" statement.
* Reject interpret modifier predicate with more than one value.
* Correctly handle capitalization of the ssharp keysym.
- Update to release 0.9.1
* Fix context creation failing when run in privileged processes
as defined by `secure_getenv(3)`, e.g. GDM.
- Update to release 0.9.0
* Move ~/.xkb to before XKB_CONFIG_ROOT. This enables the user
to have full control of the keymap definitions, instead of
only augmenting them.
- Update to new upstream release 0.8.3
* New APIs: XKB_KEY_XF86MonBrightnessCycle,
XKB_KEY_XF86RotationLockToggle.
