Of particular note, if the locale root is not specified, then xkbcommon will look for them under $prefix (i.e. /usr/local/share/X11/locale). But unless the user has specifically installed them there, it is better to look in the standard system location, /usr/share/X11/locale. Otherwise, xkbcommon will error when it can't find them, e.g.: xkbcommon: ERROR: ~/.XCompose:4:9: failed to expand %L to the locale Compose file xkbcommon: ERROR: ~/.XCompose:4:12: unterminated string literal Signed-off-by: Bryce Harrington Signed-off-by: Ran Benita --- diff --git a/README.md b/README.md index 706822a..04a5df0 100644 --- a/README.md +++ b/README.md @@ -9,6 +9,21 @@ and dead keys.
