Package: xdotool
Version: 1:3.20130111.1-3.1
Hi,
I am using german QWERTZ layout, and when I do "xdotool type z", an "y" reaches
the application.
This is an xev output while testing xdotool. The first three entries
are showing the output when sending the keypress with "xdotool type y"
to xev, the other when directly pressing my y-key in xev.
As you can see, the same keycode reaches the application in both cases,
but they are mapped to different keysyms
