Bug#734306: visualboyadvance-gtk: visualboyadvance does not respond to keyboard strokes

[Alister A.]

Package: visualboyadvance-gtk
Version: 1.8.0.dfsg-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

   * In a comepletely new installation of debian wheezy amd64 on a toshiba
laptop, with no special modifications made to the installation or the laptop
whatsoever, the emulator is unable to respond to keyboard strokes
   * I reviewed the configuration regarding controllers, and everything is ok,
but enter/backspace/z/x don't act as start/select/a/b buttons.
   * The emulator is unusable to me

thanks in advance,
Alister A.
