Bug ID: 2241601
Summary: Fedora input broke the fr(oss) French layout (default
Fedora French layout)
Product: Fedora
Version: rawhide
OS: Linux
Status: NEW
Component: xkeyboard-config
Severity: medium
Assignee: peter.hutterer(a)redhat.com
Reporter: nicolas.mailhot(a)laposte.net

Target Milestone: ---
Classification: Fedora
fr(oss) is supposed to emit French upper case accented letters in caps locks
mode ÉÈÇÀ
Something changed in the past months and it emits lower case instead. So you
get very annoying mixed-case éLéGANT runs of text in caps locks.
Explicit level 4 capital selection still works but this change breaks existing
user habits and is very inconvenient for new users.
To be honest I’ve noticed the breakage for some time but was hoping it was a
stupid mistake that would go away with time.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. switch to fr(oss)
2. set cap locks
3. tap the first (number) row → letters with diacritics should be emitted in
upper case, for example É, not lower case é
It is not a bug that cap locks produces symbols and accented letters. In
azerty, unlike qwerty, access to the diacritics necessary to type proper French
is prioritized over access to numbers
