GNOME has switched from gconf to gsettings. It might be well possible
that the corresponding key is now handled by gsettings. You can have a
look at the gsettings keys by using the dconf-editor.

The left-handed option is also ticked in the dconf-editor. Anyway,
it's ok now. Here's how I solved it:
Open dconf-editor, find org--gnome--settings-daemon--plugins--mouse,
then tick active.

I don't know for the touchpad, but it is simple to reproduce the problem

It is an accessibility issue: for example, the onscreen keyboard that
ships by default with Ubuntu toggles the left handedness gconf key to
let the users that can only use one mouse button perform secondary
clicks. But it does not work because of the issue described above.

USB mouse is (correctly) left-handed, but touchpad buttons cannot be re-mapped

Hum. Actually, it fixed the mouse, but not the touchpad. And I just

urgency=low has nothing at all to do with importance, but can be used
