Been having this same issue of messed up keys running calibre over VNC on a headless docker container when everything else works fine.
And just spotted this thread, exactly the same issue, and in fact had it happen every time I've tried calibre over a vnc.
Just before I found this thread I found this:
https://communities.mentor.com/thread/12344
which indicates that on some platforms users have had and corrected this adjustments to XMODIFIERS environmental variable.
Searching on that for my own platform found this:

Which indicates QT does this in lots of places if XMODIFIERS misconfigured.
Which brings me back to this thread...
I see from the thread that koviggoyal prefers rsync, for multi-machine set-ups. But I tend to use a portable device over a VPN when I'm out and about. And that is not really conducive to regular file syncs.
There seemed to be a theme around the isue, so I just thought I'd share.
In case anyone else is pursuing this, I'll keep digging.
Anyone know how to configure QT5?
