Dear Debian folks,


Upgrading from awesome 4.0 to 4.2, pressing the modifier key for the
Neo layout, the error below is shown in a red notification box.

```
/usr/share/awesome/lib/awful/widget/keyboardlayout.lua:123: attempt to 
concatenate a nil value (field '?')
```

You can reproduce it, by loading the Neo layout with the commands
below.

```
$ setxkbmap lv
$ xmodmap neo_de.xmodmap
```

Then pressing the modifier for the third layer, for example, QWERTY
caps lock, should trigger the error.

This was report upstream as issue #1933 [1], and is fixed by commit
acc01235 (Make keyboardlayout widget more robust (#1941)) [2].

Upstream told me, that this issue should have been present in awesome
4.0 already, but no keyboard “indicator” was shown with awesome 4.0 on
my system.


Thanks,

Paul
