I use ca_enhanced xkb layout and i need to use dead keys (a special key combo) to type
special characters (ASCII 0x80 to 0x90) used in french language. Theses key combos works in
all apps i use (kde, gnome, X) except openoffice.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set Layout = "ca_enhanced" in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb/X0-config.keyboard
2. Restart your X server, you will have some fun if you are used to us layout :-)
3. Launch any openoffice app (oowriter, oocalc, etc)
4. Try to type any of those characters (ç,è,à,ê,ë,â,Ä,î,ä)
Actual Results:
I got (c,e,a,e,e,a,A,i,a)
Expected Results:
Im supposed to be able to type those characters used in french language
(ç,è,à,ê,ë,â,Ä,î,ä)
