+- Update to new upstream release 0.8.0
+  * Added xkb_keysym_to_{upper,lower} to perform case-conversion
+    directly on keysyms. This is useful in some odd cases, but
+    working with the Unicode representations should be preferred
+    when possible.
+  * Added Unicode conversion rules for the signifblank and
+    permille keysyms.
+  * Fixed a bug in the parsing of XKB key type definitions where
+    the number of levels were determined by the number of level
+    *names*. Keymaps which omit level names were hence
+    miscompiled. This regressed in version 0.4.3. Keymaps from
+    xkeyboard-config were not affected since they don't omit
+    level names.
