Package: qtcreator
Version: 3.2.1

1) Open any text in Qtcreator.
2) Switch from English language to Russian via win key.
3) Type any text.
First input char losing. You print "абв", but get "бв".

This bug already fixed in Qtcreator 3.6.0
(https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTCREATORBUG-9589). But 3.6.0 version
not available in Debian Jessie even via apt-get -t stretch install
qtcreator (problem with dependencies). So, I think Qtcreator 3.6.0
must be at least added to jessie-backports.

QtCreator 3.6.0 cannot be added via backports primarily because it
requires Qt 5.4+. Qt is not going to be backported, unless you wish to
volunteer for that.

The bug is also not in QtCreator, but Qt. You can see that with the
two small patches that fix this issue.

  https://codereview.qt-project.org/#/c/96609/
  https://codereview.qt-project.org/#/c/102007/

The simplest fix might be to grab sources for Qt (apt-get source), and
rebuild with those patches added (add patches with quilt to
debian/patches/ and `debuild` to recompile). Stuff like this generally
doesn't get backported in Debian to stable.
