Cannot bind Caps_Lock to a key #55

I cannot today bind my left shift to the capslock key. It used to work, but I now get this error:

WARNING: No keycode found for keysym Caps_Lock (0xffe5) in mapping Shift_L. Ignoring this mapping.

I precise I use the X11 option "caps:backspace". I don't have any other information and I'm quite unfamiliar with X11 and its configuration (I'm only able to choose which options I prefer…)

Why was this closed? I have exactly the same issue and have no idea how to resolve.
