Using "US, intl, with dead keys" layout, dead keys are not working with Qt apps when using wayland backend. With x11 backend typing ' + space the ' appears. With wayland only the space appears. Umlauts are also affected I've only observed this wit Qt applications like konsole or kwrite. GTK apps like firefox oder eclipse are working correctly. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. start plasma session with wayland backend 2. start Qt application 3. try typing some dead key combo Actual Results: dead key modifier not showing any effect, only the last typed key is printed Expected Results: dead key modifier are working (eg. ö instead o) emerge --info Portage 2.3.100 (python 3.8.3-final-0, default/linux/amd64/17.1/systemd,

Linked bug sounds familiar? I can confirm the behaviour but at the same time I don't think it is a downstream issue.
*** Bug 748135 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Please test with kde-plasma/plasma-workspace-5.20.5-r2, it contains a fix for XKB variable setup in wayland startup.
Hi, Thanks for the warning, the change looks legit, though it doesn't seem to be enough in my end, so I'm still unable to write tilde characters or the n tilde, and the like. I'm living in plasma-workspace-5.20.5-r3. Best regards. Jose(no tilde... sniff...).
New info, and a bug fixed in Plasma-5.22 and Qt-5.15.2+Qt5PatchCollection.
