>Description:
Dear maintainers of the pkg xvkbd,

		 using the default xvkbd installation from the pre-built binaries on NetBSD/amd64, it is not possible to enable the Russian keyboard.

		 To use the Russian, French and German keyboard within xvkbd, the following changes are necessary:

% cat /usr/pkg/lib/X11/app-defaults/XVkbd
#include "XVkbd-common"
#include "XVkbd-german"
#include "XVkbd-french"
#include "XVkbd-russian"

XVkbd searches for the keyboard definitions, in a other directory then where the installation of the pkg puts them:

% ln -s /usr/pkg/lib/X11/app-defaults/XVkbd-russian /usr/X11R7/lib/X11/app-defaults/XVkbd-russian

% ln -s /usr/pkg/lib/X11/app-defaults/XVkbd-french /usr/X11R7/lib/X11/app-defaults/XVkbd-russian

% ln -s /usr/pkg/lib/X11/app-defaults/XVkbd-german /usr/X11R7/lib/X11/app-defaults/XVkbd-russian

Now you can use Russian, French and German keyboard.

Sincerely,

Adrian Kiess
