I just updated xkeyboard-config to 1.4 for i686 testing, could you test if this version includes the required bugfixes?

It's almost ok.
THe abnt2 keyboard layout has a comma and a dot on the numeric keyboard.
Both are printing comma when pressed. This problem was still not fixed.
If there is no new upstream version, I can try patching myself.
Just let me know

If you could supply a working patch, I'll be happy to apply it.
