The numeric pad doesn't work in all input fields and code editor (I don't use FakeVim but even using FakeVim). Keys Shift+up/down/left/right , Ctrl+up/down/left/right don't select text anymore, a nightmare to type code ;-). So I removed all and reinstalled the previous SDK (2.4.0).

I use Ubuntu 18.04 x86_64 (using default xorg)

Edit: Yo, reinstalling the previous SDK will download the latest :-( . Aaaarrrrg...

I have the previous sdk 2.4.0 installed in my laptop and I copied all from it to my desktop. Back to the sdk 2.4.0 has fixed my issue on Ubuntu 18.04. I guess that is related to the Qt based version. The old sdk uses qt-5.9.7 and the new uses qt-5.12.?.

After googling, I found the root cause of the issue. It seems qtcreator hasn't been linked with xkbcommon. Is it planned to provided a fix for that ?
