In this version (1.11-2) the settings from $HOME/.xxkbrc not properly
read. Running "strace xxkb" reveals that $HOME/.xxkbrc is started to
be read, however e.g. the item
XXkb.button.xpm.2:
appears to be read from the system file (/etc/X11/app-defaults/XXkb),
since the system-defined icon is displayed instead that specified in
$HOME/.xxkbrc.
The strace output (xxkb.out) as well as user config file are attached.
When running xxkb version 1.10-2.1+b1 with the same $HOME/.xxkbrc,
everything works correctly.
