Package: libsdl1.2debian
Version: 1.2.9-4
Severity: normal

Since this version came into testing, the SHIFT modifier only works with 
letters and not with the number keys e.g. (to get !@#$%^&*()). This is 
most notable with a package like openmsx, in which SDL is used for 
keyboard handling. In the emulator it is suddenly (with this version of 
the package) not possible anymore to use openMSX normally, especially in 
"MSX-BASIC" or when other complicated text input is required.

On Windows with a clean SDL 1.2.9, this problem doesn't occur with 
openMSX, at least and as I said, with the previous Debian package in 
testing it worked fine as well.
