Is it better with latest X packages?

It was for a while (can't recall at what exact version), but now the
problem is a bit different.  I'm now using the 1:1.2.0-1 packages, and
immediately after logging on, the lights show properly (I have KDE set
up to turn on the NUMLOCK), but as soon as I hit the CAPS LOCK key, the
NUMLOCK light goes off, although NUMLOCK remains on.  At this stage, the
light indicator is again as I reported.  It has been like that for over
a month I think.  I'm still on sid.  Thanks for following up on this!
