Description lostonamountain 2014-12-12 23:54:27 UTC 
I had submitted a bug report (https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Dota-2/issues/1620) for Dota 2, which uses SDL apparently. Here is the issue in Dota:

I have a custom xkb keyboard mapping in which I have swapped backspace and backslash. It wouldn't be a big deal if dota did not recognize the mapping entirely but it recongizes that I have slash as backspace but it does not recognize backspace on slash so it is then not possible to use backspace.

I think this bug is a duplicate of bug 2096.
Comment 2 Ryan C. Gordon 2015-02-19 04:24:12 UTC 
Yeah, this is a duplicate, I think.
