Hi folks,

it seems the latest xorg-server update also changed the German standard 
keyboard layout, since the tilde is no longer a dead key. I verified that 
the standard variant is still used, I have no ~/.Xkbmap or /etc/X11/Xkbmap 
or (Xmodmap or Xresources), so the standard must have changed.

Where is this defined and how do I get back the "normal" behavior?

If you're used to a tilde working as dead key, the original key sequence 
like produced for e.g. this annoying example:

rm -rf ~ /tmp

I wand my dead key back!
Anyone?

Cheers,
Jörg
