Bug ID: 482397
Summary: Swapping CTRL and Caps lock does not swap controls but
turns both keys to caps lock
Classification: Applications
Product: systemsettings
Version: 5.27.10
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: kcm_keyboard
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: tobias.b...@gmail.com
CC: butir...@gmail.com, natalie_clar...@yahoo.de
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
If I enable "swap Ctrl and caps lock", both keys are turned into Caps lock
instead of being swapped.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Go to keyboard > advanced > Ctrl position and enable "swap Ctrl and caps
lock".
Screenshots available in
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/293278#issuecomment-1976938917
OBSERVED RESULT
Observe that now both CTRL (left) and caps lock are mapped to caps lock key,
instead of being swapped. setxkbmap, on the other hand, does not have this
issue (but first, make sure to type `setxkbmap us` or alike, otherwise KDE will
still be used as the input system).
EXPECTED RESULT
I would expect caps to be a ctrl key, not a caps key anymore.
