Bug Description
Binary package hint: keyboards-rg
To reproduce:
1) Select the Colemak keyboard layout
2) Notice that the Caps Lock key works as a backspace
3) In layout options, select "Caps Lock Key Behavior," select "make Caps lock an additional Esc"
4) Even after logging out/in, notice that the behavior of the caps lock key hasn't changed
I've heard that this is a new bug, i.e. wasn't present in Maverick (http://
Expected: after changing the setting, caps lock key works like an esc key.
What happened instead: caps lock is still a backspace.
