[Bug 518056] Re: cedilla appears as accented c (ć instead of ç) when typing 'c

 

@leandromartinez98

In Emacs inside terminal (with the option -nw) it works very fine! But
not in Emacs windowed version.

GNU Emacs 24.3.1 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.10.9)
 of 2014-06-06 on brownie, modified by Debian

My system is a Xubuntu:

No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID:	Ubuntu
Description:	Ubuntu 14.10
Release:	14.10
Codename:	utopic

I also have problem with WebStorm 10.0 and IntelliJ 13.1.6

I tried your solution but without kill my session (I'm sorry, I can't do
it right now). There is a way to test without killing the section? Isn't
"source ~/.profile" not enough?

Thank you.

Bug description:
  
  When typing in a US-international keyboard with dead-keys (or UK-international), 
  typing 'c results in an accented c instead of a cedilla.

  There is a workaround, which is editing the

  /usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/immodule-files.d/libgtk2.0-0.immodules

  file and changing the line

  "cedilla" "Cedilla" "gtk20" "/usr/share/locale"
  "az:ca:co:fr:gv:oc:pt:sq:tr:wa"

  to

  "cedilla" "Cedilla" "gtk20" "/usr/share/locale"
  "az:ca:co:fr:gv:oc:pt:sq:tr:wa:en"

  (add the 'en' at the end).

  However, every time some update on this file is applied, one looses the change,
  and we get back to the accented c. That means having to modify the file again,
  logout and login.

  For me this is no problem. But for my brother, mom, dad, etc, it is always something
  that at least makes me less proud of having convinced them to use Ubuntu, because
  they don't know what to do each time this happens.

  I think we really need a configurable keyboard layout, or at least (and that would
  be very easy), the inclusion of alternate layouts on install that for the dead-key
  options (as US-deadkey and UK-deakey), alternate layouts as US-deadkey-cedilla.

  This change is relevant for at least Portuguese and French.
