If it doesn't really mean anything people should get removed because it leaves the wrong impression. > Sure.

I guess some request for help to either debian-devel-announce or at least a notice in some misc developer's news might make sense for such a central package. It's hard to believe that not at least some people to try to triage the bugs might be found, even when it might be just for a short period of time, but getting some comments into the bugs would be a first start. Anyway, sorry to have stirred you the wrong way, back to the topic. > What does xev report when you press those keys? Does the problem happen > in all gtk apps? Does the problem happen in non-gtk apps? xev reports the proper keys (@ and the likes), and ISO_Level3_Shift for the AltGr (right alt key). My first suspicion was the same that it would be gtk related because it only seems to appear there, but then, gvim (from the vim-gnome package) is also an gtk app and it doesn't suffer from that issue. I only really noticed it in iceweasel and pidgin. I just started evolution for a quick test, it has the same issue, likewise with gimp, glables, brasero, ... That gvim does *not* have the issue puzzles me most somehow. And I just noticed, abiword is unaffected also. From the non-gtk applications that I use regularly and have given a try now none was affected so it indeed seems to be somehow related to gtk, even though abiword and vim-gnome are unaffected. Why doesn't gtk appear in ldd on the iceweasel-bin file, even though the package depends on it? That makes checking with ldd pretty tough. :/ Oh, and I think I wrote it would send over a q. That's wrong, nothing at all appears in those applications when I press a key sequence with the AltGr key pressed. Or it seems to receive _something_ because gnumeric sets me into cell editing mode. It just doesn't add anything there, it stays empty. Thanks, Rhonda -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-x-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
