[Bug 540751] [NEW] Unable to use dead keys with java and ibus

 

Public bug reported:

Using latest Lucid packages, I am unable to use ^ key to generate ê
french character in every Java programs (jEdit, Netbeans, etc.).

Typing ^ + e give just the e character.
Typing ^ + Space and nothing appears.

I've tried with Sun JDK (6u18, 6u20, 7) and the bug is still present.

I've tried to remove ibus and everything works again (I've just unset
XMODIFIERS and GTK_IM_MODULE).

I don't know if it's an ibus bug or openjdk one.
