[Bug 1218322] Re: Can't set keyboard layout change to alt+shift, ctrl+shift, etc.

 

Thanks for the interest in this bug, we are going to do a first SRU with
what is in the ppa, then iterate over that later with other fixes to
address the remaining issues

That bug is getting difficult to follow, it would be nice if:

- the SRU testers would focus on testing the specific fix described (we
know that some of the problems are still there, it shouldn't block us to
fix some of the issues though)

- comments about how annoying that bug is (or about "how could you
release with that bug?") would stop, we all agree it's an important
issue and as working to address it, let's keep the bug useful to work to
a solution

- we should perhaps file different bugs about the different issues, it's
difficult to track different issues in a same ticket

** Description changed:

+ === gnome-control-center ===
+ 
+ Impact: the UI to change the layout switching keys doesn't work
+ 
+ Test case:
+ - open gnome-control-center's text input settings
+ - click on the "next layout key" entry
+ - try entering a key combinaison (e.g ctrl-space)
+ -> the UI should reflect the new keys
+ 
+ Regression potential: that UI was not working before, it should only be
+ an improvement (some key combos are not working as expected, that's
+ another issue and shouldn't be mixed with this one)
+ 
+ ----------------------
+ 
  Can't set keyboard layout change to ctrl+shift, Caps Lock, alt+shift
  etc. "Shift", "CapsLock" keys are just ignored in settings. Also the
  default shortcut was set to "Super+Space" that is inconveniently,
  because Dash is opening when you swich your keyboard layout.
