Package: libgnomekbd4
Version: 2.30.1-2
Severity: normal
Hi,
When you have more than one keyboard layout, it is useful to assign a
key to switch between selected layouts (keyboard preferences > layouts >
options > key(s) to change layout). Unfortunately, pressing the selected
key (or keys combination) only changes the layout once (from the first
to the second). Then the user has no other choice but to click on the
keyboard indicator in the notification area to select another layout.
As far as I can tell this behaviour/bug is not new.
Cheers,
Denis
