Package: xwayland
Version: 1.20.7-3
Severity: important
--- Please enter the report below this line. ---
Programs running under XWayland doesn't honor the keyboard layout
configured under Gnome Shell.
I have the Spanish keyboard layout configured in my system, with an
Spanish keyboard. Under X11 everything works as expected: pressing the
'ñ' key shows an 'ñ' letter, and all the symbols are in the right key.
Logging in Wayland, everything *seems* to work fine, and in fact, native
Wayland applications (like Gedit) work fine and show the symbols and
Spanish characters as expected. But applications that use XWayland
don't, interpreting the keyboard as an American one. Even more: forcing
GTK3 applications to use XWayland makes them fail too, like doing from a
terminal:
GDK_BACKEND=x11 gedit
In this case, gedit also interprets incorrectly the keyboard layout.
HOW TO REPRODUCE:
- set your keyboard layout to Spanish
- logging in Wayland
- launch Firefox
- try to type a symbol
- compare the symbol typed with the one that is inserted when pressing
the same key in Gedit
