I'm guessing the bug is in gsd-keyboard, but I can't imagine it being
from anywhere else.
I have also submitted a bug report with the Mint team, where I found the
bug, and so I will copy all the extra information from that report in a
follow-up comment.
1) Ubuntu 24.04 LTS
2) I can't find a package version. I get variations on "N: Unable to locate
package gsd-keyboard"
3) Should behave as an ordinary key, where a single press means a single action.
4) Behaved as if the key were held down, until pressing any other key ended the
non-stop backspacing.
Note that the ordinary backspace behaves as expected. More info will be
added with additional comment.
