Would it be possible to keep further discussion to the forums? This bug
report is already unhelpfully long, and it's hard to extract the useful
information, namely: what is the bug? where is it present? when is it
likely to be fixed? how can I work around it? All of these questions are
now answered, but some of the remarks about evdev and the arrow keys in
the preceding few comments show that at least some users have not
managed to find at least some of this information. Example: an
announcement of a patched evdev package is useful; discussion of how to
install and uninstall it do not belong here.

Having said that, maybe the Ubuntu devs could take note: long threads
such as this one in the BTS often reflect bugs that are inconveniencing
many users, and quite how they imagine that having unconfigurable
keyboard autorepeat two releases in a row[1] is anything approaching
acceptable, I do not understand.

[1]Hacks and workarounds don't count. I am talking about the standard
configuration mechanism that is all that 99% of users will ever try.
