I was affected by the same problem and can confirm that removing indicator-keyboard fixes the problem, sadly sacrificing visual feedback about the current keymap though.
My entries at GSettings key org.gnome.desktop.input-sources.xkb-options were not lost during the update to 13.10 and started working again after removing the package. Besides 'ctrl:nocaps', I had also set 'grp:shifts_toggle', i.e. using pressing both shift keys together to toggle keymaps, and that shortcut was also restored by this. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1215826 Title: Lost ability to remap Caps Lock to Ctrl To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/indicator-keyboard/+bug/1215826/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
