It's not clear to me what you mean.

As regards Brazilian Portuguese, there is nothing left to do, as far as
I can tell. There are three ways to enable the '+c = ç behavior in
Ubuntu 15.04, assuming that you keep IBus (default) as the IM framework:

1. Select Brazilian Portuguese as the display language (via Language
   Support).

2. Select Brazilian Portuguese as the regional formats setting (via
   Language Support).

3. Set the LC_CTYPE variable manually, as explained in comment #115.

I will probably propose that the same is set up for Portuguese
(Portugal) when the development of 15.10 opens.

  cedilla appears as accented c (ć instead of ç) when typing 'c

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.
