udev hwdb: "Property expected, ignoring record with no properties."
There's no need when I already have a driver. Anyway, I went for evremap, which "targets the evdev layer of libinput"
- Remap KP_Enter to Return

[Linux] remapping keys on kernel level; got an "Insert" and a "SysRq" key.
So, for this usecase kmonad, chkb, evremap and similars are not a solution that seems acceptable to me.

Question about xbps-src
I'm trying to create a package from a github repo. The package has no official release tarballs, so I'm setting distfiles="https://github.com/wez/evremap". When I run xbps-src fetch evremap or xbps-src pkg evremap, it fails to find the Cargo.toml. I'm getting no indication that the zip file is even being downloaded. I'm sure I'm doing something wrong, so help would be appreciated. Is it because it's a zip of the repo?

Identify the difference
I'm using evremap. Simple to set up and just works.

Identify the difference
I set it up with https://github.com/ambirdsall/dots/blob/15b660d81c2513b3f20f5c1b71ae2ce2a878011d/.config/i3/config#L27-L28 and https://github.com/ambirdsall/dots/blob/15b660d81c2513b3f20f5c1b71ae2ce2a878011d/.Xmodmap. Haven’t found a simpler way on linux; on macOS, it’s easier (use Karabiner Elements).
What are some alternatives?
When comparing evremap and dots you can also consider the following projects:
xcape - Linux utility to configure modifier keys to act as other keys when pressed and released on their own.
sharpkeys - SharpKeys is a utility that manages a Registry key that allows Windows to remap one key to any other key.
kmonad - An advanced keyboard manager
linux
kmonad-contrib - A repository of community configurations, as well as other bits and bobs
chkb - chkb turns a regular keyboard into a fully programmable keyboard. It is a cheap programmable keyboard
