The dead_macron patch is there in the current Debian's symbols/fi file and it is in the upstream as well. Debian Etch's fi(basic) is the same as Debian Sid's fi(classic) as the default Finnish keyboard has changed. In Debian Etch I ran the following commands: setxkbmap 'fi(basic)' -option xmodmap -pke >xmodmap-pke_etch_fi-default.txt In Debian Sid I did the following: setxkbmap 'fi(classic)' -option xmodmap -pke >xmodmap-pke_sid_fi-classic.txt Then compared the files: The only difference is in the keycode 214 which does not affect anything relevant. See the attached diff file. The I compared en_US.UTF-8/Compose files (which is used with fi_FI.UTF-8 locale as well). The Compose files are 100 % identical in Etch and Sid. I also manually tested fi(classic) in Sid and everything seems to be working well. Dead keys do work So, it seems to me that this bug does not exist and the it can be closed. (I'll file a new wishlist bug about updating en_US.UTF-8/Compose file from the upstream. It'll make fi(kotoistus) work a bit better.)
