Feisty's Evince's hotkeys borked (with Finnish locale)

[Ilmari Vacklin]

Binary package hint: evince

On Feisty, Evince 0.72, using poppler 0.5.4 (splash) seems to think that pressing the "ä" key on the Finnish keyboard means I want to zoom out. This happen seven when the search bar is activated, making it impossible to search for words containing the "ä" character. Additionally, Evince zooms in and out with the + and - keys without having to press Ctrl at all. However, it does not seem to think Ctrl is pressed all the time, e.g. pressing just "o" doesn't open the open file dialog.

(FWIW, xev(1) says Ctrl+ä is the "-" character, which I suppose makes Evince's behaviour at least logical, if very broken.)

Thank you for your bug. Does that happen with other application using Ctrl,- like epiphany for example? That looks like a keyboard configuration problem rather than an evince one

[Ilmari Vacklin (wolverian)]

No, it doesn't.

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

marking unconfirmed then, would be nice if somebody having that problem could pick on it and try to figure what is happening there

[Jouni Mettala (jouni-mettala)]

Sorry can't confirm. Same version of evince and poppler here and letter ä works as it should.

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

do you have several keymap configured?

Ah, yes. I have the Finnish and the Swedish Dvorak keymaps configured.
Even when I use the Finnish keymap the "ä" key misbehaves. If I remove
the Dvorak configuration, the problem disappears.
