Just after emerging xfce4-weather-plugin with the patches
provided by David W Noon, I have noticed that I lost all my
alternative keyboard layouts.
I tried to set them anew via xfce4 Keyboard Layouts Plugin
version 0.5.6 but there is no keyboard layout that suits my
keyboard.
Unfortunately, unmerging xfce4-weather-plugin did not help.
Another thing I did just before re-emerging xfce4-weather-plugin
was a routine system update. This time only net-dns/libidn package
was updated from version 1.28 to version 1.29, and before that
update my alternative keyboard layouts were still present, as
I remember using them just after the update but before rebooting
the system.
So, it also may be that updating libidn package caused the damage.
I remember that, while installing Gentoo about 15 months ago,
I set my keyboard layout not via an xfce4 plugin but somewhere
in the X11 settings. (At that time I had gnome2 instead of xfce4 anyway).
So, may be now, re-emerging xfce4-weather-plugin, or trying
to set the alternative keyboard layout anew, I have created some
xfce4 configuration file that shadows X11 (or old gnome2) settings
that xfce4 used for keyboard layout previously.
Any thoughts?

I think you are referring to the XkbLayout. In /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-
evdev.conf you can add a section like so with the keyboard languages of your
choice:
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "evdev keyboard catchall"
MatchIsKeyboard "on"
MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
Driver "evdev"
Option "XkbLayout" "gb,el"
Option "XkbOptions"
"grp:alt_shift_toggle,grp_led:scroll,compose:menu,terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp"
EndSection

Yes, something like that. But I have no /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ directory.
So, I did that configuration in another file.
But the problem is that I have not changed anything related to the keyboard
layout just before my alternative keyboard layouts disappeared.

I have found out that my problem with xfce4 keyboard plugin
reduces to the fact that now I cannot choose Russian Winkeys
alternative keyboard: there is no such option in the corresponding
keyboard layout settings. So, I have to choose Osetinian Winkeys
alternative keyboard as it is appears to be the next best choice:
only one extra unnecessary letter "ӕ" in place of "э" and the letter
"э" is set in another easy to remember position.
But everything worked perfect before emerging xfce4-weather-plugin
with patches and libidn!

Oh, no. I was wrong! Because, in the Osetinian Winkeys
keyboard layout, I cannot find letter "ё".
And this issue significantly slows down my work!

Well you should configure keyboard layouts through evdev. If you update xorg-server you will need to remerge x11-drivers.
So configure evdev as suggested by previous emails and then remerge x11-drivers.

Excluding comments, it is like this:
en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8
en_US ISO-8859-1
ru_RU.KOI8-R KOI8-R
ru_RU.UTF-8 UTF-8
ru_RU ISO-8859-5
ru_UA.UTF-8 UTF-8
ru_UA KOI8-U
uk_UA.UTF-8 UTF-8
uk_UA KOI8-U
I have not changed this file since installation of Gentoo
about 15 months ago.
Yet a few days ago I had no problem with my Russian keyboard
layout and still have no problem with my Ukrainian keyboard
layout.

First of all, I cannot see why I should recompile something after
changing configuration files.
Second of all :), there is no ebuild named x11-drivers. If you meant
xorg-drivers,
I have recompiled them with no effect.

The problem has been solved by
1) unmerging buggy xfce4-xkb-plugin
2) deleting its .rc file somewhere in ~/.config directory
3) emerging buggy xfce4-xkb-plugin back
I think it is a bug as it is impossible to chose ru(winkeys)
keyboard layout from xfce4-xkb-plugin interface.
