This is forwarded from the mentioned Debian bug: The new version seems to somehow break the F10 key. When being in GNOME, and havin a gnome-terminal opened, e.g. aptitude running... pressing F10 should cause aptitude's menu to open. But now, aptitude's menu opens, as well as the context menu of the terminal itself. Downgrading fixes the issue. Cheers, Chris.

The x11 (xev) events are absolutely identical - that is the limit of xk-c responsibility, for properly written SW. Is that ok with everybody? If that's the case, the software is using some other information from XKB config - which is should not, I guess Returning to the previous version of F10 definition is not an option because it had clearly broken semantics of things like Shift-F10.

This is not completely true. The new definition of CTRL+ALT consumes Shift, the old one does not. With the new definition, in a pedantic interpretation of section 7.2.1 of the protocol specification of the X Keyboard Extension, applications must not distinguish Shift-F10 and F10 anymore. To see wether this is related to problem at hand, one could replace the definition of CTRL+ALT (file in types/pc) with the following one: type "CTRL+ALT" { modifiers = Control+Alt+Shift+LevelThree; map[None] = Level1; map[Shift] = Level2; map[LevelThree] = Level3; map[Shift+LevelThree] = Level4; map[Control+Alt] = Level5; preserve[Shift] = Shift; preserve[Shift+LevelThree] = Shift; preserve[Shift+LevelThree+Alt] = Shift; preserve[Shift+LevelThree+Control] = Shift; preserve[Shift+LevelThree+Alt+Control] = Shift; preserve[Shift+Alt] = Shift; preserve[Shift+Alt+Control] = Shift; preserve[Shift+Control] = Shift; level_name[Level1] = "Base"; level_name[Level2] = "Shift"; level_name[Level3] = "Alt Base"; level_name[Level4] = "Shift Alt"; level_name[Level5] = "Ctrl+Alt"; }; I do not have gnome on my machine, so I cannot test myself. Note that the above definition is still not nice, but should be ok to check wether consumed Shift is to blame. > Returning to the previous version of F10 definition is not an option because > it > had clearly broken semantics of things like Shift-F10.

As you > can see, the events are exactly same. Basically, as Shift is consumed, one should not distinguish F10 and Shift-F10. This means that pressing Shift-F10 should be handled like pressing F10; or that pressing F10 should be handled like pressing Shift-F10. So it is imaginable that consuming Shift assigns two functions to pressing F10: the usual one for F10, plus the one for Shift-F10. That is the idea. Whether it happens like this, I do not know. One has to try or read the relevant source code. In any event, the original report speaks about two actions triggered by F10...

It is similar to the one in comment 17, but avoids blowing up the map with lots of new entries. With this map, XkbTranslateKeyCode still translates Shift-F10 into F10 at level1, but the Shift modifier is now preserved, so GTK+ uses it when matching accelerators, and thus F10 and Shift-F10 can once again have different bindings.
