[Bug 1440341] [NEW] indicator-applet-complete grabs meta-s

 

Public bug reported:

I've configured everything I could so that meta (the logo key) is passed
to applications, desktop programs are using key combination with alt.
Yet indicator-applet-complete is grabbing meta-n.

How do I know?
$ xdotool keydown "meta+s"; xdotool key "XF86LogGrabInfo"; xdotool keyup "meta+s"
then looking at /var/log/Xorg.0.log

System: Ubuntu 14.10

$ setxkbmap -print
xkb_keymap {
 xkb_keycodes { include "evdev+aliases(azerty)" };
 xkb_types { include "complete" };
 xkb_compat { include "complete+ledcaps(group_lock)" };
 xkb_symbols { include "pc+fr(oss)+us:2+inet(evdev)+altwin(meta_win)+level3(ralt_switch)+capslock(backspace)+compose(menu)+nbsp(level3)+kpdl(kposs)+terminate(ctrl_alt_bksp)" };
 xkb_geometry { include "pc(pc105)" };
};
$ dconf dump / | grep -i meta
xkb-options=['terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp', 'compose:menu', 'lv3:ralt_switch', 'altwin:meta_win', 'kpdl:kposs', 'nbsp:level3', 'caps:backspace', 'grp_led:caps']
options=['terminate\tterminate:ctrl_alt_bksp', 'eurosign\teurosign:e', 'Compose key\tcompose:menu', 'ctrl\tctrl:nocaps', 'lv3\tlv3:ralt_switch', 'altwin\taltwin:meta_win']
$ dconf dump / | grep -i super
$ dconf dump / | grep -i ">s"
switch-input-source=['<Primary><Alt>space']
$
