Package: x11-xkb-utils
Version: 7.7+1
Severity: normal
--- Please enter the report below this line. ---
On a freshly installed Debian testing with KDE, I experience the following
problem:
When I switch to the virtual console and back (Ctrl-Alt-F1/F7), the alt/meta
key swapping which I enabled (since I use an Apple keyboard) is reversed upon
return to X.
Restarting X (logging out/in) works to reset the key mapping.
The output of `setxkbmap -print -verbose 10` does not differ before and after
(it shows altwin:swap_lalt_lwin as one of the options), but the xmodmap output
clearly shows that the setting has changed.
Trying to (re)set this setting with
setxkbmap -option altwin:left_meta_win
has no effect, only manually resetting the keys with xmodmap worked so far for
me.

Closing this old bug. I suspect it was not actually an issue with
x11-xkb-utils, but maybe related to how kde handled keyboard config?
In any case, hoping it's fixed by now.
Cheers,
Julien
