Bug#702994: unknown-horizons: Modifier keys cause character to be entered in input field

[Axel Beckert]

Package: unknown-horizons
Version: 2012.1+dfsg1-1
Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,

when clicking on the "Singleplayer" button and try and to enter a name
which includes a capital letter, pressing Ctrl, Shift or Alt enters a
crossed square glyph (like a captial letter X inside a full
line-height
empty square) into the input field.

The same happens if I press Backspace at the beginning of the input
field. Pressing the Home/Windows/Super key inserts another glyph which
seems to be a greek lower-case kappa ("ϰ").

It also seems impossible to copy and paste from that input field.

Hardware is an EeePC 900A with German ("de-de") keyboard layout.
