Fixing this bug needs fixing of other severe bugs!

One of them:
Bug #255008 is marked as "won't fix". There are a lot of duplicates and it is reported to affect lucid lynx as well (even if filed against intrepid ibex).

Shure every one's bug is the most important (I'm no exception :o))), but this one affects basic keyboardmapping in X-environment. The keyboard up to now is the main interface to do things on a computer. Not properly working keyboard means not properly working ubuntu!

I repeat in this place:
Everyone with a xmodmap customized keyboard mapping doing a LTS upgrade will run in unusable keyboard!

here my resume (which took me 2 days of searching):

If I did severe mistakes bringing this up - please point me out how to do better! :o))
