kde or xorg problem (empty list of options)

[Yury Tarasievich]

I was experiencing problem with kde's control center, getting empty
list of keyboard layouts (this may or may not be related to
http://leaf.dragonflybsd.org/mailarchive/users/2006-05/msg00112.html
and http://leaf.dragonflybsd.org/mailarchive/users/2006-05/msg00053.html).
After digging through the trace of kcontrol, I've seen the erroneous
requests for directories (see below, lines marked with "*"). Ad hoc
linking of .../lib/X11/xkb to .../lib/X11xkb did the trick, I 've got
my layouts.
