 Is that a variant of the us (default)? In that case, this keyboard 
 setting has been broken for nearly a year. Variants don't work.

Yes, it is a variant of the us (default) layout.

For other desktop environments/window managers, I have the following in
/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-keyboard.conf:


  Section InputClass
MatchIsKeyboard on
Identifier  system-setup-keyboard
Option  XkbModel  pc105,abnt2,microsoftmult
Option  XkbLayout us,br,br
Option  XkbVariantintl,,
Option  XkbOptionsgrp:shift_caps_toggle,grp_led:scroll
#Option XkbOptionsterminate:ctrl_alt_bksp,
  EndSection


Is there an entry in the bug tracker for this bug?

Is there any hope it is fixed soon?

i have used this for years - under options (in the kbd settings) under compose
key position i selected caps lock (since i find caps utterly useless 99.%
of the time and have better things for it to do).. so now i can use it as a
dead key. the kbds i do have are us qwerty (thus re-use caps for this) or are
jp or kr layouts, and with jp/kr choosing the right layout works fine (the
input mode modifier keys produces the right keysym)... so as best i see - it's
al there and works.
