Package: evince
Version: 3.22.0-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

I use evince under gnome which runs on top of XWayland on stretch.

My laptop keyboard has a physicial UK layout.

I configured the keyboard through Gnome Control Center to use another layout
(french one).

In any applications (or at least all the one I used so far) when I type the
physical Q key, the application receive the A keystroke as expected.

It is not the case in evince (and as far as I know for now) only in evince:
when I press the physical Q key, it receives the Q keystroke without respect of
any keyboard settings layout.

I am unsure where to report this bug (Xwayland, Gnome or Evince) but since I am
able to reproduce that bug only with evince so far, I try here.
