You don't say what the dedicated key for ù is, but I would expect that
you might need something like lv3:ralt_switch in your XKBOPTIONS
to get it from one keystroke. I think I'm assuming you have a R-Alt
key, sometimes engraved AltGr. (Being English, I compose ù with `u.)
All that said, your use of "anymore" might suggest a bug in sid.
Cheers,
