is from konsole.
Note that the same test also fails with the same results in gnome-terminal
indicating that it's not specific to any one application, but rather to an
upper level keyboard handler.

I tried to change the keyboard type to more closely match what I have, an MS
ergo 4000, but this had no effect.

I have not tried to revert this upgrade. I don't know how to do that easily. I
can remove the ppa, but how to force the older versions to be reinstalled
without pinning each in an apt/preferences file?

Here's the upgrade output after adding the kde backport ppa:
