Dear Maintainer,
After installing a clean debian bookworm with the default gnome desktop
environment I reconfigure the keyboard with the setting:
"Make Caps Lock an additional Ctrl"
After installing Battle for Wesnoth I realized that the usual keyboard
shortcuts did not work. I soon realized that it ignored my custom remap
and hardcodes the position of the control key.
This used to work in debian bullseye, buster, and all previous versions
I've played (many years, many debian versions). I've tried both the
plain debian stable (1:1.16.9-1) and the backport (1:1.16.10-2~bpo12+1),
neither works.
I've used the caps lock remap for well over a decade, probably two, and
this is probably the first time it does not work as expected. I see many
issues in the wesnoth github issue tracker related to some new SDL input
handler and keyboard layouts, but I could not figure out if they've
solved it in a new version or not. Many of them are still open.
