Bug 10143

Latest working kernel version:
2.6.23.14

Earliest failing kernel version:
2.6.24

Distribution:
Archlinux and others

Hardware Environment:
i386

Software Environment:

Console, it does not matter if the console is in UTF8 or non-UTF8

Problem Description:

The kernel does not generate a valid  compose table

Steps to reproduce:


Kernel 2.6.23 if we run:

dumpkeys --compose-only > file ; vim file

compose '´' 'A' to 'Á'
compose '´' 'a' to 'á '
etc ....

Kernel 2.6.24, if we run:

dumpkeys ---compose-only > file ; vim file

compose '´' 'A' to 'ÿ'
compose '´' 'a' to 'ÿ'
compose '´' 'e' to 'ÿ'
compose '´' 'i' to 'ÿ'
..... ...
etc .... Always --> ÿ

With "loadkeys -u us" or "loadkeys -u defkeymap" this problem does not exist.

Because us.map.gz include :

keymaps 0-2,4-6,8-9,12
alt_is_meta
include "qwerty-layout"
include "linux-with-alt-and-altgr"
include "compose.latin1" <-------------- Compose
include "euro1.map"
strings as usual
.....


But with others keymaps,  Eg; "es.map.gz" not include "compose.latin1" use compose the kernel but in kernel 2.6.24 no exist valid compose in the kernel.

Thanks.
