Gnome 46 2404 - xkbcommon: ERROR: failed to add default include path /usr/share/X11/xkb

[JGCarroll]

Users have started reporting

xkbcommon: ERROR: failed to add default include path /usr/share/X11/xkb

And the snaps do not load at all.

E.G., https://github.com/JGCarroll/pinta-snap/issues/12 https://forum.snapcraft.io/t/snap-run-xkbcommon-error-failed-to-add-default-include-path-usr-share-x11-xkb/41041/4

I'm assuming this is on a phased rollout as I cannot reproduce locally.

I think gnome-sdk is missing xkb-data stuff: https://forum.snapcraft.io/t/snap-run-xkbcommon-error-failed-to-add-default-include-path-usr-share-x11-xkb/41041/6?u=be1

The xkb-data package has been added back to the staged packages now
