As from ibus 1.5.11-1ubuntu1, ibus honors X11 compose files. With this change, together with the pending language-selector commit, all Portuguese users can type ccedilla easily in xenial.
If either the display language or the regional formats setting is a Portuguese option, '+c will automatically result in ccedilla (ç). * It works in the same way for Brazilian Portuguese and Portuguese as spoken in Portugal. * It works whether the input method framework in use is ibus, fcitx, uim, or none. If neither the display language nor the regional formats setting is a Portuguese option, you can enable this feature manually by opening your ~/.profile file for editing and adding this line: export XCOMPOSEFILE=/usr/share/X11/locale/pt_BR.UTF-8/Compose See also: http://www.x.org/archive/X11R7.5/doc/man/man5/Compose.5.html ** Changed in: ibus (Ubuntu) Status: In Progress => Fix Released ** Changed in: language-selector (Ubuntu) Status: In Progress => Fix Committed ** No longer affects: ibus -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to libx11 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/518056 Title: cedilla appears as accented c (ć instead of ç) when typing 'c Status in xkeyboard-config: Won't Fix Status in xlibs: Fix Released Status in ibus package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in language-selector package in Ubuntu: Fix Committed Status in libx11 package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: When typing in a US-international keyboard with dead-keys (or UK-international), typing 'c results in an accented c instead of a cedilla. There is a workaround, which is editing the /usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/immodule-files.d/libgtk2.0-0.immodules file and changing the line "cedilla" "Cedilla" "gtk20" "/usr/share/locale" "az:ca:co:fr:gv:oc:pt:sq:tr:wa" to "cedilla" "Cedilla" "gtk20" "/usr/share/locale" "az:ca:co:fr:gv:oc:pt:sq:tr:wa:en" (add the 'en' at the end). However, every time some update on this file is applied, one looses the change, and we get back to the accented c. That means having to modify the file again, logout and login. For me this is no problem. But for my brother, mom, dad, etc, it is always something that at least makes me less proud of having convinced them to use Ubuntu, because they don't know what to do each time this happens. I think we really need a configurable keyboard layout, or at least (and that would be very easy), the inclusion of alternate layouts on install that for the dead-key options (as US-deadkey and UK-deakey), alternate layouts as US-deadkey-cedilla. This change is relevant for at least Portuguese and French.
