[SOLVED] Rofi has strange character set

I just updated the system and now rofi works fine when I type using the US keyboard layout, while "asdf" look like this when I switch to Italian:

rofi with strange characters

Any hints? That's apparently the only application showing this odd behavior.

Edit: downgrade to xkeyboard-config 2.35.1-1 solves the problem.

Re: [SOLVED] Rofi has strange character set

You for some reason have the 3rd level shift (AltGr) active.

Right, those characters correspond to AltGr+a,+b etc, but they only appear in rofi. I have to actually press AltGr to show theme elsewhere.  Very strange.

Apparently an issue with xkeyboard-config.
