Bug#724869: base: Deadkeys do not work in Xorg French canadian keyboard
I solved the problem by selecting xim with im-config.
The default wheezy installation was giving 2 valid choices, here is an
extractfrom im-config:
Current configuration for the input method:
* Active configuration: xim (normally missing)
* Automatic configuration: uim (normally ibus or fcitx or uim)
* Number of valid choices: 2 (normally 1)
The configuration set by im-config is activated by re-starting X.
Explicit selection is not required to enable the automatic configuration
if the active one is default/auto/cjkv/missing.
Available input methods: uim xim
Unless you really need them all, please make sure to install only one
input method tool.
Thanks
James
