            Bug ID: 104030
           Summary: Incorrect case with Yubikey static password with
                    libinput 1.9.3-1 on Arch Linux
           Product: Wayland
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: Other
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: libinput
          Assignee: wayland-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: bugs.freedesktop.org at xo.tc

I have a Yubikey setup with a static password. After upgrading to libinput
1.9.3-1 on Arch Linux when I press the button on the yubikey the password is
typed but some of the characters are lower case when they should be uppercase. 

Rolling back to libinput 1.9.2-1 (for now) has fixes the issue. 

I'm not 100% sure how the internals of a Yubikey work but my understanding is
that it emulates a USB keyboard and sends through the scan codes as though they
were key presses. 

After upgrading libinput four of the characters in my password which should
have been uppercase come through as lowercase (it's consistently the same
four). There are other uppercase characters in my password that come through
with out issues.

I don't know the exact speed the Yubikey is typing at but I'd guess around 100
characters a second. It feels as though the scancodes are coming through too
fast and it's missing the shift down press.
