[Bug 373472] [NEW] Danish keyboard spacebar types non-breaking spaces

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

In Ubuntu 9.04 I use several keyboard layouts, but have a problem with
the Danish layout.

When typing in the Danish keyboard layout I discovered that the space
bar, instead of making spaces, it is making non-breaking spaces or
something like that. At any rate, it messes up the formatting making
words stick together on a new line when typing in tekst in a webform.

When I switch keyboard layout (for example the Canadian Multilingual or
French) I can delete the spaces made with the Danish keyboard and retype
with the French or Canadian keyboard and everything is fine. So this
problem is  related to the spacebar of the Danish keyboard in 9.04. I
did not have this problem in 8.10.

Attached is a screenshot showing how a typed line with the Danish keyboard layout does not wrap over to line 2 but 
continues, and having a need for scroll bars.

Maybe this is a problem not with the Danish layout, but when switching
layouts. When setting the DAnish keyboard as default, I seem not to have
this problem.
