A variant of this bug is present in Gutsy Gibbon / Tribe 5 / Macbook / Finnish keyboard layout.

After changing the keyboard configuration (installer didn't get it right), I get a Gnome warning message during the boot.

Error activating XKB configuration.
It can happen under various circumstances:
- a bug in libxklavier library
- a bug in X server (xkbcomp, xmodmap utilities)
- X server with incompatible libxkbfile implementation

X server version data:
The X.Org Foundation
10300000

If you report this situation as a bug, please include:
- The result of xprop -root | grep XKB
- The result of gconftool-2 -R /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/kbd
