https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=278204 --- Comment #6 from Emmanuel Vadot <manu@freebsd.org> --- (In reply to Gleb Popov from comment #5) I have no idea how all this thing is supposed to work. A lot of Linux distro use /var/lib/xkb for the compiled stuff, which is why we made the link to it and why we switch xorg-server to use it directly when we switched to meson (even if this part wasn't needed). I don't know which command is supposed to write those keyboard description files but that's something that a user should be able to do and it's working now because of the SUID bit. With my patch (and using xwayland too) it also works as we will fallback to the user XDG_RUNTIME_DIR (and after that on /tmp). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
