Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-settings-daemon
Settings CapsLock to be a compose key used to entirely disable the
capslock functionality, including disabling the activation of the LED.
Under hardy, using this same setting, the capslock feature is disabled,
but pressing the capslock key does trigger the capslock LED to toggle on
and off. This is confusing because typing when the CapsLock LED is lit
puts lowercase characters on the screen.
The only layout setting I have off-default is the "compose key
location", which I have set to CapsLock.
What I expect to see is that the capslock would only trigger composition
(for characters like æ, ü, ß ...), would not cause uppercase characters
ever to be automatically be entered, and would leave the CapsLock LED
alone.
** Affects: gnome-settings-daemon (Ubuntu)
