Bug#234355: xlibs: .../locale/en_US.UTF-8/Compose: <dead_diaeresis> <space> produces a diaeresis
Package: xlibs
Version: 4.3.0-2
Severity: normal
This is very annoying! I can no longer get a quotedbl (") by pressing
<dead_diaeresis> <space>, as it was always. Why this change? A
diaeresis can still be produced with <dead_diaeresis>
<dead_diaeresis>, should anybody need it (!?).
I suggest you to apply the following patch. I hope there's no plans to
change <dead_acute> <space> to produce an useles <acute> instead of an
apostrophe... Why do people change things they don't use??
Bye.
