[Bug 73240] Re: German keyboard layout - deadkeys by default

 

While this bug report seems to have veered offtrack a bit, the original
discussion appears to me to be a difference of opinion about the default
behavior, where the current behavior matches expectations for one class
of user but not another.  It sounds like the original behavior in the
bug report has changed, so perhaps some of the original problems are not
occurring.

Given there is not an apparent consensus from the comments, and that the
current behavior matches both Windows behavior and established specs (as
per comment #16), then it sounds like the default behavior should be
left as is.  While it might not match everyone's expectations, at least
it is configurable.

If you disagree and still think changes should be considered, I'd ask
that you file a new bug with a clear proposal of what to change.  I
think such changes will need to be presented for upstream to consider
before making changes in Ubuntu.

** Changed in: xkeyboard-config (Ubuntu)
