I update my computer with # emerge -uD world. Then every time I login to gnome, an error appears: "Error activating XKB configuration.

Could it be that xf86-input-evdev-2.4.0, which was also recently updated has, something to do with this XKB mishap ?
I make a downgrade from xf86-input-evdev-2.4.0 to 2.3.2, but it don't fix problem!
Do you have the same problem on a new created user account? Can you please attach ~/.xsession-errors file just after reproducing the problem? What x11-libs/libxklavier version do you have installed? Remember that you can look for updated packages reviewing /var/log/emerge.log file

Maybe it's due recent Xorg update... but I don't know how could I confirm that or what should I check :-/ X11 team, do you have any idea about how to deal with this problem? Thanks
Could be fallout from xkeyboard-config-1.9 update, which dropped support for some xkbmodels (most notably, evdev). Repoter: Check if that problems occurs for a newly created user, too.

Created attachment 241471 [details] The original xkb directory just before running etc-update
I have had this problem for a fairly long time. Everything I did in vain. The problem rises when you etc-update and it overwrites all the configuration files in /usr/share/X11/xkb/. The only solution I found was to get an untouched version of that directory and restore it. That solved it. Unpack the attached as the original xkb directory. Of course this is only a workaround. cheers, (In reply to comment #8) > (In reply to comment #7) > > Could be fallout from xkeyboard-config-1.9 update, which dropped support for > > some xkbmodels (most notably, evdev). > > > > Repoter: Check if that problems occurs for a newly created user, too. > > > > Yes you are right.

Thank you Kete Tefid. At last I find out problem: In file /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/ir at "include" lines 21, 22, 24, 25, 33, 34, 36, 37 at the end of lines they shouldn't be ';'. When I removed these 8 ';', problem fixed. Maybe this problem appeared in other /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/?? files.

Created attachment 241711 [details] Original file in xkeyboard-config-1.9
Created attachment 241713 [details, diff] Patch Here is original xkeyboard-config-1.9 file and patch for it. This is only ir patch, maybe other languages have the same problem.
Created attachment 244139 [details, diff] new ebuild which applies two patches to fix the include statements for ir,in,lk and sy. This ebuild applies two patches that fix the include statement bugs in: symbol/ir symbol/in symbol/lk symbol/sy The patches were taken from the upstream project and need to be placed into: /usr/portage/x11-misc/xkeyboard-config/files You need to create the files directory first. After placing ir-include.patch and in_lk_sy-include.path into /usr/portage/x11-misc/xkeyboard-config/files you need to run the following command as root: ebuild /usr/portage/x11-misc/xkeyboard-config/xkeyboard-config-1.9-r1.ebuild manifest Afterwards you can update xkeyboard-config and expect things to work again: emerge --oneshot xkeyboard-config Those two patches I mentioned above are also attached to this Bug report. Get them there.
Created attachment 244141 [details, diff] This patch fixes include statements for in,lk and sy keyboard layouts To be used with my proposed ebuild "x11-misc/xkeyboard-config-1.9-r1" which is also attached to this bugreport. Put this file and the other patch "ir-include.patch" into the files directory and follow the instructions given for the above mentioned ebuild.
Created attachment 244143 [details, diff] This patch fixes include statements for ir keyboard layouts. To be used with my proposed ebuild "x11-misc/xkeyboard-config-1.9-r1" which is also attached to this bugreport. Put this file and the other patch "in_lk_sy-include.patch" into the files directory and follow the instructions given for the above mentioned ebuild.
I checked out the xkeyboard-config sources from the respective git repository and found out that the bug has been fixed since the fourth of june: commit ddaa1ddb70edee56e5e204f98cf8276705c1afdc Author: Sergey V. Udaltsov <svu@gnome.org> Date: Fri Jun 4 22:15:29 2010 +0100 fixed syntax of include lines https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=28387 About a month later a few more files were fixed: commit 393204e792de332457b1175b3831170d6970a98f Author: Sergey V. Udaltsov <svu@gnome.org> Date: Thu Jul 1 22:22:13 2010 +0100 Fixed syntax errors in include statements ... Since it is a more or less grave bug (at least for us iranians and anybody else who is affected by this bug) I would suggest to the xkeyboard-config ebuild maintainers to include a patch that fixes the problem. In the meantime you can use the modified xkeyboard-config ebuild in addition to the patches (ir-include.patch and in_lk_sy-include.patch) that I have attached to this bugreport. Those patches were created using diffs taken from the upstream project. Maybe it proves to be useful to some of you guys.
Thank you guys!! I had the exact same problem http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=329527 And after a long long time your solution fixed it.
*** Bug 331241 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
The easy workaround is to use the -9999 ebuild from the x11 overlay. Otherwise, I'll get to patching xkeyboard-config Real Soon (tm). Thanks
Is the 2.0 version of xkeyboard-config working as expected? Please test and report us success/failiture thanks :)

(In reply to comment #24) > Is the 2.0 version of xkeyboard-config working as expected? Please test and > report us success/failiture thanks :) Before you try 2.0 version, use the attached xkeyboard-config-2.0-r1.ebuild, otherwise you will end up with broken layouts again (but for a different reason). The upstream package contains incomplete *.dir files, so they need to be regenerated. This might be unrelated to the bug originally reported, but this is what I've faced and I think others in this bug report will have too.

Ok given the fact nobody complain about current 2.1 or 2.0-r1 i am closing this :)
