Yeah, sure. But others should test it out first. :-) Works for me
though. You can also include the vim keymap if you like.

If you have a script that does the packaging of the Sinhala components.
Just run wget and grab it from:

http://savannah.nongnu.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/*checkout*/sinhala/sinhala/keymaps/sin?rev=HEAD&content-type=text/plain

However, it should be noted that the user will have to run:

setxkbmap -layout "sin,us" -option "grp:caps_toggle,grp_led:caps"

Or modify the xorg.conf file before they can use the keymap. The
instructions are available here:
