Description Jan Pokorný [poki] 2018-06-08 08:05:29 UTC

I am setting these environment variables:

export XKB_DEFAULT_LAYOUT=us,cz
export XKB_DEFAULT_OPTIONS=caps:swapescape,grp:shift_caps_toggle,grp_led:scroll

However, after said upgrade, this configuration doesn't work properly
in sway WM (IIRC, cannot exchange layout with SHIFT+CAPS and "CAPS - ESC swap"
doesn't work as expected, either -- ESC will work as ordinary CAPS but
not vice-versa, but at least double ESC has the effect of ordinary "ESC").

Currently, I am forced to stay at 2.23.

Comment 1 Peter Hutterer 2018-06-28 06:07:21 UTC

Is that still the case with xkeyboard-config-2.24-2 ?

There was a bug in -1 that has been fixed since, see bug 1587998

Comment 2 Jan Pokorný [poki] 2018-06-28 12:15:23 UTC

Actually, updated the package yesterday only to be tested with a full
reboot today -- and I can confirm the behaviour matches the expectations
again.

Thanks, Peter!
