Can someone please reopen this bug? I confirm it is still here on Ubuntu
Trusty 14.04.3 LTS.
I managed to fix the bug on my system. I am sharing here both my
findings and a patch.
The upstream fix from freedesktop.org does essentially three things:
1. In types/pc, define a new type
I just tried my own patch on Lubuntu 14.04. Control_R works fine, but
Ctrl+Shift+Space does NOT yield the expected narrow no-break space. It
can still be generated by AltGr+v anyway.

I just installed Ubuntu 14.04, instead of 13.10 (new install, not an upgrade):
I confirm this bug reappeared.
When you are used to the CTRL key to copy, paste, CTRL+C, etc, it is quite
annoying.
How can one apply this 2008 patch to fix it on his system?

I am trying to figure out how to define a new type in
/usr/share/X11/xkb/types/extra that does the same thing as the current type
used for the space key with right-ctrl hardcoded instead of using iso_level5.
Current type used for the space key is EIGHT_LEVEL, as defined in
level4n in
I have tried the following, with no success:
type FIVE_LEVEL_RCTRL {
modifiers = Shift+LevelThree+RCtrl;
map[None] = Level1;
map[Shift] = Level2;
map[LevelThree] = Level3;
map[Shift+LevelThree] = Level4;
map[RCtrl] = Level5;

Thanks Patrice...
So at the same time you gave me my answer: the keyword for right control
modifier in xkb type config files is RControl (not rctrl as I tried).

For my part this bug has recently worsened because the right alt key
(AltGr) is now also an ISO_L key as the right ctrl key in french
alternative keyboard layout and the tricks of Franck does not fix this
(removing the level3(ralt_switch) line).
--
Right CTRL don't work
@Frédéric
as a temporary workaround, you can simply comment out the following line
include level5(rctrl_switch)
in /etc/X11/xkb/symbols/fr (xkb_symbols oss section).

still there..
Could some of you guys give a bit more infos on how to fix this ?
I couldn't get how to define a new type in
/usr/share/X11/xkb/types/extra... :-s
Thanks for any precious help you might provide here...

Fabien : indeed. It's exactly the problem why AltGr is not used. :)
that does the same thing as the current type used for the space key with
right-ctrl hardcoded instead of using iso_level5, then switch the space
key in fr(oss) to this type.
I don't know if it's a bug or not, but upstream author

What is puzzling me here is that on my desktop, I see Control_R while on my
laptop, I see ISO_Level5_Shift.
It means I can use ControlPrintScreen or bind stuff like ControlF12
and ControlLeft/Right in metacity and have those work with Control_R on my
desktop while on my laptop it doesn't
Franck, please don't rant in bug reports - it really doesn't help. You
have two core developers paying attention to this bug right now, and it
is already on our list to be fixed for 8.04. My experience is that bugs
filled with ranting are less pleasant to spend time on and thus if
anything are

But I don't understand why this would be the case - how do you hit
AltGr+Space accidentally?
to obtain a | on a french keyboard, you have to do AltGr + - (the key
holding the 6 on a US keyboard, above the y).
So, in CLI, when *I* type foo | bar, most of the time, the space after the
pipe is

Right Control is deliberately mapped to ISO_Level5_Shift in the fr(oss)
keymap, which I think is just for the benefit of the narrow non-breaking
space key. I'll contact the author of this keymap and ask if this can
safely be changed.
--
Right CTRL don't work
Well, sure it is !
narrow non-breaking space is called espace fine and is supposed to be used
between a word and a ? or ! in place or an stupid standard non breaking space.
Who would live without it ?
On the other hand, right ctrl is used to escape from a virtualbox window
once it has captured
I have exactly the same problem with a French keymap with a generic 105
keys layout on a Lenovo 3000 N200 laptop.
xev gives the same output as for Christophe Fergeau.
The gnome keybindings dialog detects the right Ctrl as Mod3.
Hope you can fix this bug in time, it seems to affect only French
Same issue here (French keymap). The right ctrl key generates events in
xev, though the name of the key is surprising when compared to what is
returned for the left ctrl key and compared to what was returned for the
