Thanks for the report, Ed. I'm going to need some help from you, because I cannot reproduce this. I use a US layout keyboard, which may be significant. Today's a US holiday and my wife is about to drag me off for some family fun, so I won't look at this until tomorrow. However, I will find where the keys are decoded, and probably ask you to do a few tests for me so we can determine where the problem lies. One thing you can do right away: does "xemacs -vanilla" show the same behavior? Yes, xemacs -vanilla produces the same behaviour. If I can get hold of a US keyboard I will test with that. Does xev report Control_L, Alt_L, and slash KeyPress and KeyRelease events when you press C-M-/? I'm going to try walking you up the stack of layers that read and process key events, until we find the one where the behavior of your system deviates from mine. I hope this isn't too tedious for you, but since I can't reproduce, I don't know how else to debug it. Although I suppose I could try to make a user account with a UK locale in a VM.... I made a user account with a UK keyboard in a Rawhide VM, but I still can't reproduce, which suggests that you are right about the UK keyboard not being significant. Are you doing anything with xmodmap, xkeycaps, etc.? This is reproducible at the local console so it can't be anything to do with xmodmap, xkeycaps, or any other X11 settings. For the same reason I think xev is not relevant? I will, however, try to reproduce it on a different machine. Sorry, this fell off my radar. Do you happen to have the xemacs-aplus-fsf package installed? If not, I've fixed a bunch of other bugs in XEmacs since you first reported this bug. It might be worth trying the latest build to see if the bug is still present: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=138912 This message is a reminder that Fedora 11 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 11. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '11'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 11's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 11 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping Fedora 11 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2010-06-25. Fedora 11 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
