Bug#484062: upgrade-reports: Two Greek Polytonic diacritics no longer available
Package: upgrade-reports
Severity: important
-- System Information:
Debian Release: 4.0
APT prefers oldstable
APT policy: (500, 'oldstable'), (500, 'stable')
Architecture: i386 (i686)
Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash
Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-6-686
Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8)
Polytonic Greek works in Etch by copying the Greek Compose file into the
US Compose file (sudo cp /usr/share/X11/locale/el_GR.UTF-8/Compose
/usr/share/X11/locale/en_US.UTF-8/Compose) and adding (for GNOME) the
line <GTK_IM_MODULE=xim> to the /etc/environment file. For KDE the
coppying of the Compose file is enough.
Following upgrade to Lenny, the workaround is no longer able to produce
on screen the Psili <᾿> and Dasseia <῾> diacritics, while it keeps
functioning correcτly for Oxeia <΄>, Bareia <`>, Perispomeni <῀>,
Hypogegrammeni <ͺ> and Diairessis <¨> and their various combinations.
