Description Ruben Vermeersch 2009-01-28 18:41:36 UTC
Having an azerty keymap defined in /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/kbd/layouts, as wel as a qwerty keymap causes both Ctrl-A and Ctrl-Q to be mapped to Select All.

Therefore, Ctrl-Q no longer acts as Quit in most applications. Similarly, Ctrl-W becomes mapped to Undo, rather than close.

This can be reproduced in gedit by setting the gconf key /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/kbd/layouts to [fr,us].

Tested in Ubuntu 8.10 and Fedora Core RawHide as of today. So this will probably occur in SVN as well.

Expected result is well, having working close & quit shortcuts. Seems like each map is processed, rather than just the active one.
