With commit 0fb34101788d84e9a1d98b3730cc7b9295e0f19b in
xkeyboard-config, `group(alts_toggle)` changed behaviour in a way
such that the right alt no longer generates altgr.

Apparently the purpose of the change was to make the "Both Alts" shortcut work again, after a long period when it didn't work.

And in a working state, I'm not surprised to hear that "Both Alts" conflicts with the use of Right Alt for accessing 3rd and 4th level symbols.

I can't help asking why you set the "group(alts_toggle)" option at all. You don't seem to use any other keyboard layout but Norwegian anyway. So even before you have answered, my advice would be to just drop that option wherever you set it and move on. ;)

In any case the issue is not severity "serious", especially not in a Debian distro context.
