[Problem]
On Belgian keyboards a couple characters are missing. The attached patch fixes this by adding the following line:
key <AD09> { [ o, O, oe, OE ] }; // o O œ Œ
[Original Report]
My computer is configured in English:
$ locale
LANG=en_GB.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE="en_GB.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="en_GB.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="en_GB.UTF-8"

LC_TELEPHONE="en_GB.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="en_GB.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_GB.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=
But my keyboard is Belgian. Relevant section of xorg.conf:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Generic Keyboard"
Driver "kbd"
Option "XkbRules" "xorg"
Option "XkbModel" "pc105"
Option "XkbLayout" "be"
EndSection
Special characters are defined in this file:
/usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/be
However the "œ" and "Œ" (o and e attached) are missing in this file. Normally, they should be accessed via ALT-Gr+o and ALT-Gr+O
This is fixed by adding this line in /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/be :
key <AD09> { [ o, O, oe, OE ] }; // o O œ Œ
I don't know about the variants but it should be at least in the "basic" section. My corrected file is attached.
Once this file has been modified, restart X or type
$ setxkbmap -layout be
