Bug Description

When installing Xubuntu 18.04 Bionic Beaver, daily build of two days ago, numlockx is being installed also.

This automatically activates the hidden numeric keypad (accessible by Fn key combination) on the keyboard of my netbook. Which is definitely undesirable, because it makes half my keyboard unusable....
