Hmm, I can find the release tarball nowhere.

comment:3 by Xi Ruoyao, 6 weeks ago

The snapshot ​https://github.com/xkbcommon/libxkbcommon/archive/xkbcommon-1.8.0.tar.gz works but it extracts into libxkbcommon-xkbcommon-1.8.0.

The release announcement at 

https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/wayland-devel/2025-February/043969.html

has the notation "we've decided to stop publishing tarballs".

I am not sure how to handle what should be a routine update. One thing I thought about is to host a tarball on anduin: 

git clone https://github.com/xkbcommon/libxkbcommon.git
git checkout -B 1.8.0 76740e0c4583ae49675e7ba8213d31ee09aa00d2
mkdir /usr/src/libxkbcommon/libxkbcommon-1.8.0
cp -a * /usr/src/libxkbcommon/libxkbcommon-1.8.0
cd /usr/src/libxkbcommon/
tar -cJf libxkbcommon-1.8.0.tar.xz libxkbcommon-1.8.0

At that point I can upload to anduin: c87f7b1284940e563a2666b0a83abd39 libxkbcommon-1.8.0.tar.xz

And we can point to that and just use the current instructions.

I've tested the tarball I generated and there are no build problems.
