I will look (again), but this is happening reproducibly on a totally
clean build of trunk (via fpcupdeluxe), I have tried rebuilding
Lazarus with clean all and *just once* I got things to work again
using qt5. I've never managed to get things to work again since. I
have changed no key map settings, I have configured no macros. This is
using 64-bit Linux Mint 19.3, should anybody feel that makes a
difference, and BTW, I have also tried switching keyboards, with
absolutely no effect. I had about 6-9 months away from using Lazarus,
during that time I changed from using Ubuntu 18.04 LTS to Mint 19.3. I
didn't see the problem on my old setup, it has occurred every time
except that ONE occasion on the current setup. The same PC, just the
operating system changed.

Brian.
