Do you have xkeyboard-config or xkbdata installed?

Could you check whether it's a problem in the other?

there's another similar line in /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/level5:

partial modifier_keys
xkb_symbols "rctrl_switch" {
  key <RCTL> {
    type[Group1]="ONE_LEVEL",
    symbols[Group1] = [ F35 ]
    };
  modifier_map Mod5   { F35 };
};


anywhere i don't know what layout uses this bootlevel, personally i use "it"

Please file an upstream bug at bugs.freedesktop.org in the xkeyboard-config product and post the URL here so we can track it. xkbdata is largely no longer maintainer, so xkeyboard-config is the preferred way to go.

Thanks!
