AltGr + LeftShift + Z no longer outputs less than symbol :(

Everything was working fine until I updated to latest.

Now whenever I try to output the “greater than” or “less than” symbols with: AltGr + LeftShift + Z (or X) I get these symbols: “‹ ›”

I before the update that key combination would give: “< >”

Help! Any tips on how to revert this change? :’(

Solution:

Output current key map table:
xmodmap -pke > ~/.Xmodmap

Edit it and look for the lines:

keycode  52 = z Z z Z guillemotleft U2039 guillemotleft
keycode  53 = x X x X guillemotright U203A guillemotright

Replace U2039 with less, and replace U203A with greater:

keycode  52 = z Z z Z guillemotleft less guillemotleft
keycode  53 = x X x X guillemotright greater guillemotright

Test the changes:
xmodmap ~/.Xmodmap

That’s it!
