Status in “xkeyboard-config” source package in Ubuntu: Confirmed
Bug description:
Note: I'm currently running in Parallels. This could be an artifact of
virtualisation, but I don't actually believe it is.
On a German Keyboard, alternative keys (such as @, €) are accessed via
ALT+letter (e.g. ALT-L, ALT-E correspondingly).
In Ubuntu, these keys are instead accessed with ALT-GR+letter (i.e. the right
ALT key, not the left one).
This bug might be a result of Ubuntu using the ALT key as a menu key (i.e.
ALT-E opens edit menu).
If this is the case, I ask you to consider remapping the menu key to CMD. (i.e.
ALT-E -> €, CMD-E Edit menu).
In case this bug doesn't get resolved, please followup with a solution I can
apply myself.
