Unable to clear mod5 using xmodmap

Hello,

I'm trying to customize my keyboard layout and for some reason I am not able to run the following action :

xmodmap -e "clear mod5"

I get this error :

X Error of failed request:  BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)
  Major opcode of failed request:  118 (X_SetModifierMapping)
  Value in failed request:  0x17
  Serial number of failed request:  8
  Current serial number in output stream:  8

Does anyone has an idea why I get this ?

I am running the latest version of xserver and my window manager is i3 (from the main repo)

Thank you very much for your help.
