[Bug 1790694] [NEW] Update forgets capslock gnome setting

Tue Sep 4 17:53:25 UTC 2018

Public bug reported:

I'm not sure this package is the source of the bug.  I just updated my
system, including this package.  Before the update, my capslock key is
set in gnome-tweaks to "Caps Lock is also a Ctrl".  After the update, my
capslock key was back to being capslock.  If I load gnome-tweaks, it
shows the correct setting but behavior is wrong.  I can choose another
option and then choose the one I want, and the desired capslock behavior
is restored.

Here's the console output from the update, showing the packages
involved:
