Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: python-vte
This bug emerged after upgrading to Intrepid. I did not see it in Hardy.
It manifests itself as incorrect Ctrl-key combinations sent to the shell
in TerminalScreenlet.py
For example, when I press Ctrl-K on my Dvorak keyboard, the shell
receives Ctrl-V.
Reporoducing the bug: run the terminal screenlet with non-US keyboard
layout and examine the Ctrl-modified keys where the layouts differ. The
composed key seen by the client will match the US layout.
Other python-vte apps may show the same bug, but I don't know of any, so
cannot verify. I do not know if it is a vte or python-vte bug either, so
I'm reporting it for python-vte because that's where it shows.
python-vte 1:0.17.4-0ubuntu1
xorg 1:7.4~5ubuntu3
xserver-xorg-core 2:1.5.2-2ubuntu3

Terminal screenlet is not part of the screenlets package; I think I got it from
