--- Comment #1 from Emmanuel Vadot <[email protected]> ---
There seems to be a fallback to XDG_RUNTIME_DIR if this failed :
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/-/blob/master/xkb/ddxLoad.c?ref_type=heads#L73

So I guess that using xkbcomp will use /var/lib/xkb and xwayland will not use
those file ? Shouldn't we use XDG_RUNTIME_DIR everywhere ?

I admit that I'm totally a noob in xkb stuff as I don't use Xorg and also uses
qwerty/us everywhere. I just don't like chmod 1777 without knowing the full
picture.
