Description Dennis Payne 2018-07-17 01:40:14 UTC
Description of problem:
When you hold down the key and then release, the key release event is sent followed by phantom key press.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
3.2.1

How reproducible:
Press a key for a while. Let go. The release event is sent followed by a press event, some repeat events and finally another release event.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Download https://github.com/dulsi/tinyscreensim
2. Go to example/colortest directory.
3. Run ../../tinyscreensim colortest colortest.ino
4. Run ./colortest
5. Hold G for a while.
6. Release G.

Actual results:
G button shows that it is pressed after you release the key.

Expected results:
G button should release and not get pressed again.


Additional info:
This is fixed in the master branch of glfw.
https://github.com/glfw/glfw/issues/747

(Sorry for suggesting my colortest program. I really should include a smaller simpler example but I don't have the time to create it at the moment.)

Comment 1 Ben Cotton 2019-05-02 20:25:08 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 28 is nearing its end of life.
On 2019-May-28 Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for
Fedora 28. 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that are no longer maintained.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
EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '28'.

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.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora 28 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, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

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.
