Description VF 2018-08-13 00:00:41 UTC
In my /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/00-keyboard.conf, I have the following config part:

Section "InputClass"
        Identifier "system-keyboard"
        MatchIsKeyboard "on"
        Option "XkbLayout" "us,ara,tr,ru"
        Option "XkbModel" "pc104"
        Option "XkbVariant" ",digits,,"
        Option "XkbOptions" "compose:ralt,grp:menu_toggle"
EndSection

The so-called "horizontal" numeric pad works excellent:
- If I switch to English layout, it inputs Hindu–Arabic numerals (1, 2, ..., 7, ...).
- If I switch to Arabic, it inputs Eastern Arabic numerals ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eastern_Arabic_numerals ).
- If I switch to Turkish, it inputs Hindu–Arabic numerals.
- If I switch to Russian, it inputs Hindu–Arabic numerals.

But numpad keys seems to provide buggy input:
- English layout: Hindu–Arabic (good).
- Arabic layout: Eastern Arabic (good).
- Turkish layout: Hindu–Arabic (good).
- Russian layout: Eastern Arabic (it's a bug).

Expected behavior: in Russian layout, numpad numbers should provide Hindu–Arabic numbers.
Actual behavior: in Russian layout, numpad numbers provide Eastern Arabic numbers.
My "setxkbmap -print" is listed below:

xkb_keymap {
	xkb_keycodes  { include "evdev+aliases(qwerty)"	};
	xkb_types     { include "complete"	};
	xkb_compat    { include "complete"	};
	xkb_symbols   { include "pc+us+ara(digits):2+tr:3+ru:4+inet(evdev)+group(menu_toggle)+compose(ralt)"	};
	xkb_geometry  { include "pc(pc104)"	};
};
