Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users. If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested and change the tag from verification-needed-bionic to verification-done-bionic. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed-bionic. In either case, without details of your testing we will not be able to proceed. Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance for helping! N.B.

[Test Case] 1. Have Ubuntu 18.04 LTS installed with VNC server 2. Connect to Ubuntu 18.04 LTS from other machine with VNC client 3. Launch any Qt5 based application such as `assistant`, `kate` or `retext` 4. Press keyboard combination on VNC client Expected results: all keypresses are recognized successfully Actual results: * <Shift> produces `1` * <Alt> produces `5` * <`> produces `p` * <Delete> and <Backspace> are not working * all letters are messed [Proposed Fix] The proposed fix is a backport of two upstream commits: the second being the actual fix, the first one is some refactoring of the code to make it easier to write the second. The commits are: - https://code.qt.io/cgit/qt/qtbase.git/commit/?id=f8b164e1c37ca901 - https://code.qt.io/cgit/qt/qtbase.git/commit/?id=3edcd9420e3ad661 [Regression Potential] Most of the new code is triggered only when the keymap is missing rules, models, or layout (i.e. rmlvo_is_incomplete == true). This minimizes the risk of regressions when working with simple X11 server. In any case, the potential regressions will be related to input handling. [Other Info] Note: only Qt applications are affected, the GTK-based work as expected (including Chromium from which I write this bug-report) ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 18.04 Package: qt5-assistant 5.9.5-0ubuntu1 Uname: Linux 4.4.78-perf+ aarch64 NonfreeKernelModules: wlan exfat ApportVersion: 2.20.9-0ubuntu7 Architecture: armhf CurrentDesktop: MATE Date: Tue Jun 4 00:46:55 2019 ProcEnviron: TERM=xterm PATH=(custom, no user) LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: qttools-opensource-src UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qtbase-opensource-src/+bug/1831505/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
