 with pgtk
Date: Mon, 04 Oct 2021 08:55:32 +0100

With pgtk some keypad keys seem to be recognised as their normal
equivalents rather than the keypad versions.

Enter, insert, delete and the navigation keys all seem to work as
expected and are recognised as kp-enter etc.

The number keys (when numlock is on) and /, (, - and + and just
recognised as normal keys from the main keyboard rather than as
kp-subtract etc.

(I'm going through old bug reports that unfortunately weren't resolved
at the time.)

I think I remember seeing a similar bug report, and if I remember
correctly, this should now be fixed on the current "master" branch.
(But I may well misremember.)  Would it be possible for you to check?

This still seems to happen on master, yes.

This is yet another GTK input method module problem.  You can disable
input methods with

  (pgtk-use-im-context nil)

for the time being, and in the long term, complain to the ibus or fcitx
developers.
