I upgraded from Trusty to Xenial. Before the upgrade, the compose key was 
working in all applications, except maybe Torchat (which I hadn't used for 
months before the upgrade). After the upgrade:
*Konqueror works properly when I use the Dvorak layout and the compose key. If, 
however, I switch to Greek and attempt to type an accented iota, I get an 
accented c (ć) instead. (The accent is a dead key in the Greek layout.)
*In Kate, Kwrite, and Kmail, it works only if the resulting character code is 
less than 256 (I can type ÿ, but not Ÿ, which I have to copy from Konqueror).
*In Firefox, Torchat, and Konsole, it does not work at all. I hit compose and 
two keys that should make a character, but get nothing.

Bug description:
  After upgrading to 16.04, entering characters using dead keys and
  using the Compose key stopped working in Gnome Terminal, acting like
  they are normal (non-dead) keys.

  Other applications, even those who use the same libvte (e.g. ROXTerm),
  don't have this issue.

  This happens with both the "Belgian" and "English international with
  AltGr dead keys" layouts.
