Tested right now without success Melodie. Both on desktop and a TTY1.
Note that on TTY the keyboard map is stuck on US standard and if I
press the combination '+c the output is 'c, not ç (correct) or ć. No
additional informations/errors were given.

As you said Leszek it should works but it didn't. The keyboard output
the right char just if I set the whole system to Portuguese. But as
Nio reported this is not the solution for a Swedish system.
