Package: numlockx
Version: 1.2-6
Severity: normal
numlockx provides /etc/X11/Xsession.d/55numlockx, which is intended to
automatically activate numlock when X starts.
It contains code to look for a USB keyboard when used on a laptop in
auto mode:
fkb=/lib/udev/findkeyboards
[ -x $fkb ] && /lib/udev/findkeyboards | grep -q "USB keyboard" && NUMLOCK=on
But /lib/udev/findkeyboards does not exist, so this code always fails.
Is it provided by some package that numlockx should Depend on or Suggest?
A separate aesthetic problem is that that line would be better as
[ -x $fkb ] && $fkb | grep -q "USB keyboard" && NUMLOCK=on
I think the functionality that Xsession.d/55numlockx is
intended to provide (autodetecting USB keyboards) would be better done
through the udev hotplug mechanism. Xsession.d will only run when X
starts up, so the desired behaviour will not happen if a laptop is
first started without the USB keyboard plugged in.
