Add Latinamerican Spanish variant for Dvorak layout.

Hi

I'm a Chilean Dvorak user.
I found there's no support for the latam variant for the Dvorak keyboard, so, please, add it. I created some patches and files to add, based in the work done by a fellow mate in this Github repo: https://github.com/flobosg/latam-dvorak

The instructions, below. Those files are tested by myself, and are working.

* For the package sys-apps/kbd:
 The file is dvorak-la.map. It must be added to the sources, in the data/keymaps/i386/dvorak directory.
Hint: Also, you can add this to the respective ebuild:
{noformat}
# Adding latam-dvorak to database
	cp "${FILESDIR}"/dvorak-la.map dvorak/dvorak-la.map || die
{noformat}

in the src_unpack function.

* For the x11-misc/xkeyboard-config package:

Patch the files rules/evdev.xml.in and symbols/latam with the files evdev-dvorak.patch and latam-dvorak.patch, respectively.
Hint: Add these lines in the respective ebuilds:

{noformat}
#Time for patching
	cd "${WORKDIR}"/"${P}"/symbols
	epatch "${FILESDIR}/latam-dvorak.patch"
	cd "${WORKDIR}"/"${P}"/rules
	epatch "${FILESDIR}/evdev-dvorak.patch"
{noformat}
within the src_prepare function. Also, you must create the files directory with the patches.

All files mentioned above, are compressed in the attached one.

Thanks.

Please file separate bug reports for separate packages and make those bug reports block this one[1].

Attach patches as plain text files to each pertinent bug report.

Could this bug be related to bug #501216?


[1] Since the patches span packages maintained by different teams, getting a single bug resolved is harder than having separate bug reports resolved by individual teams. So this is a tracker bug now, to be resolved when dependent bugs are resolved.

Comment 4 jorgicio 2015-02-09 14:59:31 UTC 
Done, but the tracker only lets me attach one file at time. And no, it's not related with the bug you mentioned.
Comment 5 Felix Janda 2015-04-30 20:28:58 UTC 
Please send a message with dvorak-la.map to

https://lists.altlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/kbd

When it is accepted, you can install it via kbd-9999.


For evdev you should open a separate bug report.
