With x11-misc/xkeyboard-config since 2.4.0 and with 2.5.0 now I have problem in gnome-terminal. When I press F10 in midnight commander I have context menu in gnome-terminal and "exit y/n" in midnight commander. I have to close context menu and then press "yes" in mc. In empty console I gets symbol "~" and context menu. Reproducible: Always
I don't think `emerge --info` or build.log would help in this bug, so moving to maintainers.
I have seen other apps also behave in the same way and, after reading https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/26408, I think this looks like a bug in xkeyboard-config
Upstream says that the bug is not in xkeyboard-config. Google seems to indicate that the relationship between gnome-terminal and the F10 key is special.
Looks like people need to configure this behavior inside "Edit" -> "Keyboard shortcuts". There, you can configure F10.
It works fine with gnome-terminal-2.32, but probably it won't work for gnome-terminal-3 due: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=661973
(In reply to comment #3) > Upstream says that the bug is not in xkeyboard-config. May be, but 2.3 works fine for me, 2.4-2.5 doesn't.
Upstream release notes indicate that gtk+-2.24.13 and 3.6.0 include fixes for this problem.
x11-misc/xkeyboard-config-2.7 is now in tree which should fix this issue in combination with the packages mentioned in comment 7. Marking as FIXED.
