when using the german keymap (i.e. setting keymap="de" in /etc/conf.d/keymaps) some keys mappings are wrong. I have found the following mistakes, there may be more (Key -> result): - shift + 3 = $ -> # - ü -> @ - Ü -> \ - ä -> ] - Ä -> } - ö -> [ - Ö -> { However, many other keys do work as expected. I have tried sys-apps/kdb-1.15.5-r1 and sys-apps/kdb-2.0.2. Both show the same behavior. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. set keymap="de" in /etc/conf.d/keymaps 2. add keymaps to boot runlevel 3. type any of the above commands on the console (not in X) emerge --info Portage

Indeed, keymap="de" has wrong keys mapped. Instead keymap="de-latin1" or keymap="de-latin1-nodeadkeys" works as expected. Although dunno if this is a bug or just bad configuration.
