One of the updated files had something to do with the keyboard.
If anyone has experienced the same problem and can offer a suggested fix please do so.

This was discussed in Matrix. Here's a message from Undef on June 1st: Assuming the fix goes well, there should be a (completely untested) patched kernel in the build artefacts of https://gitlab.com/mobian1/devices/sunxi...equests/60 in about an hour if anyone with a keyboard (and the ability to revert the update) is willing to test it.
Somebody did test it and it worked for them, but I haven't checked for other updates on the situation.
I have a fresh install on a sacrificial SD card that is undergoing a dist-upgrade at the moment. So I expect the keyboard to stop working when I reboot. If it does, then I can use that to test.
Ah, the dist-upgrade left me with an image that would not boot. I will try again. First a normal upgrade then the dist-upgrade. EDIT: no luck. I it looks like a duff SD card.
What is involved in installing the patched kernel? Downloading and installing a .deb or will it need to be built first, or something else?
