Package: keepassx
Version: 0.4.3-1
Severity: normal

The auto-type feature of keepassx fails to synthesize the correct keyboard
events when the keyboard layout is not US American. For example on my German
keyboard the x and y keys are swapped around in comparison to US layout and
consequently, keepassx "types" z instead of y and vice versa when using
auto-type to automatically fill in user and password fields.

I also tried changing the language in the preferences explicitly from System
default to German with no effect whatsoever on the auto-type feature.

Looks like it doesn't use the currently set keyboard layout for doing its
key event synthesizing but instead uses US layout unconditionally.

This bug renders the auto-type feature - one of the reasons I've chosen
keepassx over other password managers in the first place - virtually useless
for users without an US keyboard.
