I added a quirk for libinput to fix this issue, until the fix is merged you can add this quirk to your local overrides:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/libinput/libinput/-/merge_requests/651 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1754052 Title: Dell Latitude 7480 press shift keys triggers random mouseclick when `Tap to click` enabled on touchpad. Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: In Ubuntu 16.04.3 and 17.10.1 holding down either shift key on a Dell Latitude 7480 causes random mouse clicks to occur without being nowhere near the touchpad with palms. No external mouse/keyboard connected. Disabling `Tap to click` in `Mouse & Touchpad` settings makes the problem go away. The problem is not present in 14.04.5, whether installed or live CD. How to reproduce: 1. On a Dell Latitude 7480 live boot (or install) one of the following images: - ubuntu-16.04.3-desktop-amd64.iso - ubuntu-17.10.1-desktop-amd64.iso 2. Open `Mouse & Touchpad` and make sure `Tap to click` is enabled. 3. Click `Test Your Settings` and make sure window has focus. 4. Hold down either shift key and after a few seconds single/double clicks start registering.
