Public bug reported:
Ubuntu release: 18.04.1
Package version: x11-xkb-utils 7.7+3ubuntu0.18.04.1
Please note: I'm not 100% sure it's the correct package to file the bug
against.
Since the upgrade to 18.04, I had to use gnome-tweaks to get my usual
keyboard layout switching to work. It's set in options as Alt+Shift, no
other option is selected (see screenshot attached), and usual Gnome
shortcuts are disabled.
Expected: Alt+Shift switch the layout, and nothing else does.
Actual: Alt+Shift does change the layout, however, together with that
Alt+Alt and Shift+Shift change the layout as well. This generates a lot
of unwanted layout switches.
$ setxkbmap -print
xkb_keymap {
xkb_keycodes { include "evdev+aliases(qwerty)" };
xkb_types { include "complete" };
xkb_compat { include "complete" };
xkb_symbols { include
"pc+us+ru:2+gb:3+inet(evdev)+group(alt_shift_toggle)" };
xkb_geometry { include "pc(pc105)" };
};
As a workaround, Left Alt+Left Shift option works as expected, but this
is still a bug.
