Description Alexandre Rostovtsev (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2011-11-20 03:12:23 UTC 
As the summary says, Shift+Backspace and Shift+Delete have no effect under xkeyboard-config-2.4.1-r1 (and similarly in 2.4.1, which had been removed from portage). With xkeyboard-config-2.3, Shift+Backspace and Shift+Delete had worked as expected (i.e. had the same effect as Backspace and Delete).

Upstream bug with xev output filed at https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=43098

Note: this is not a duplicate of bug #386561 (which was fixed in 2.4.1-r1 and in upstream git).
