In my opinion this is not fixed - when single press the modifier sticky is active but pressing it again it doesn't deactivate only if I type two characters in a separate app. And single press now acts as double press.
I have mutter: 50~beta-2ubuntu4 installed 1. open nautilus 2. enable sticky keys 3. click a folder 4. press the modifier (ctrl) key 5. now sticky keys should be activated 6. select a second folder 7. now both folders are selected. This is good and is now partly solved 8. while both folders now selected, select a third folder 9. The first two should be deselected. Only the third folder now should be selected since I have pressed the modifier key once. 10. However, you can now select multiple folders and add those to the list of selected folders. This is not expected. 11. Sticky keys is not automatically disabled. If you switch away and type on or more characters only than is sticky keys disabled With kind regards, Thijs Op 27-02-2026 om 02:40 schreef Launchpad Bug Tracker: > This bug was fixed in the package mutter - 50~beta-2ubuntu3 > > --------------- > mutter (50~beta-2ubuntu3) resolute; urgency=medium > > * d/p/ubuntu/snapd-support: Drop debug code leaked in the patch > > mutter (50~beta-2ubuntu2) resolute; urgency=medium > > [ Alessandro Astone ] > * d/p/u: Add proposed patch for sticky-keys: > Ensure that a latched modifier will only affect one key press (LP: > #2133743) > > [ Marco Trevisan (Treviño) ] > * d/p: Improve snap App ID identification. > Use the snapd provided information rather than guessing, this is needed > to support the desktop-id feature of the desktop interface and to > correctly match the applications within the shell context > * debian/control: Add build dependency on libsoup (and keep json-glib) > The latter should have been actually removed but we need it again now > In any case the new dependencies are not really new since the shell > already loads in memory libsoup, so this makes just it being loaded by > the linker instead. > > mutter (50~beta-2ubuntu1) resolute; urgency=medium > > * Merge with Debian experimental, mostly to get the new dependency of > libmutter-18 on mutter-common.
