Comment 4 for bug 1738859

I think I may have a similar issue:

> setxkbmap -query
rules: evdev
model: pc105
layout: fr,us,gb
variant: ,altgr-intl,
options: compose:caps

but gnome input selector only has fr and en Eng intl with alt dead keys en
when using the en input in gnome, some applications see keyboard shortcuts in azerty (vscode, intellij) while others receive them as qwerty (chrome, firefox)

using
sudo setxkbmap -option compose:caps -variant ,altgr-intl fr,us

I was able to fix the issue. I had only ever touched the settings through gnome interface so it seems there is a way to corrupt xkbmap settings by clicking in the gnome settings.

thanks dmitrii for your very helpful comment, thanks to that I was able to fix my setup !
