What happened to compose?

[Johann Spies <jspies@sun.ac.za>]

What happened to the compose key in debian?  It used to work without a
problem on my machine not so anymore.  I do a daily dist-upgrade.

I did a install-keymap of both the default keymaps in /usr/share/keymaps
and both of them makes provision for a compose key, but it does not
work.

It is a bit frustrating.  There was a time when my colleague with redhat
was having trouble to get the compose key going, now it is the other way
round: it works without a hitch on redhat and I can not get it going on
Debian.

Regards.

Johann
