Title:
Ctrl- key mappings broken for anything but first keyboard layout in
GTK applications
Status in GTK+ GUI Toolkit:
New
Status in “gtk+2.0” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Steps to reproduce:
* Have two keyboard layouts (e.g. US and US Dvorak)
* Note that when in the first one in the list, all keys function as expected.
* When in the 2nd one, the Ctrl- mappings in Gtk applications use the first layout.
(gnome-terminal is a good test application)
Workaround:
* When changing layouts for any reasonable amount of work, rather than use the keyboard layout applet, re-order the layouts in the keyboard preferences so the preferred layout is on top.
This is a long-standing GTK bug for people who use multiple keyboard
layouts, and as the problem has never been well understood, there are
many misfiled bugs on it (e.g. bug #204202).
Present in karmic and every previous version I can remember.
