Description Denis Lisov 2014-12-29 11:58:53 UTC
If using layouts en,ru the option kpdl:dotoss (and the other kpdl options) applies only to the first layout. I'd personally strongly prefer to have the keypad delete key produce dot in both layouts. However, this requires separate configuration like, for example, a separate call

setxkbmap -symbols '+kpdl(dotoss):2'

Is it intentional that the kpdl options apply to the first layout only?

$ setxkbmap -query
rules:      evdev
model:      pc105
layout:     us,ru
variant:    ,
options:    grp:caps_toggle,kpdl:dot,compose:sclk,grp_led:scroll


xkeyboard-config 2.13 (Gentoo unstable, KDE)
Comment 1 Denis Lisov 2014-12-29 15:00:34 UTC
This applies to both kpdl:dot and kpdl:dotoss, as well as other values and likely other options (for example, bug #14074 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14074 talks about the eurosign:e option).
Comment 2 Sergey V. Udaltsov 2015-01-14 01:37:10 UTC
This is general issue of XKB code. xkeyboard-config applies all options to the first group. There was already discussion to fix that - but it is not up to xkeyboard-config
