Description Alexandre Minoshi 2013-05-25 01:59:56 UTC

Issue was found in manjaro linux (http://manjaro.org/). 
systemd version 202

By default in system next file presents:  "/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-keyboard.conf"


After executing 'localectl set-x11-keymap ru,us pc104 cyrillic "grp:ctrl_shift_toggle,terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp"' the new file was created:  "/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/00-keyboard.conf" but old file "20-keyboard.conf" is still present. So command has not success result. No warnings or errors were showed.

There ways :
1) Delete existing files '*keyboard.conf'
2) Buck up existing files 
3) Show WARNING about existing files (IMHO, the best way)

Well, this is actually documented, we do not parse the full X11 files, and I really really don't want to add that. Sorry.
