Package: kdelibs4c2a_3.5.5a
Version: 3.5.5a.dfsg.1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

Note: This problem is identical to KDE bug #125559

A hardcoded hack in kdecore causes the "up arrrow" on keyboards
accessed through the "evdev" driver (needed for e.g. multiseat
systems) to be confused with the "PrintScreen" key and as a result launches
KSnapwhot.
This makes KDE almost useless on multiseat systems (while e.g. Gnome works
fine).

Bug #125559 contains a patch by Benjamin K. Stuhl for this problem. I
have validated his patch on my Debian unstable system by building a new
kdelibs4c2a_3.5.5a.dfsg.1-5_i386.deb from the current source-deb with
the patch. It fixed my problem perfectly.
Unless this fix is expected to propagate to sid automatically, I
suggest that you actively include it.

A related note for Debian KDE users interested in multiseat systems:
After changing the keyboard driver to "evdev" in xorg.conf (Driver "evdev"),
dont forget to also change the keyboard model in the locale settings of the
KDE Kontrolcenter to "Evdev-managed keyboard" too. Otherwise the arrow
keys and the key cluster with "Insert", "Home", "Page up" etc. are
useless. It took me some time to identify the cause.
