Hmm.. Looking at <https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ComposeKey> and
wondering if that line shouldn't rather read something like this:

<Multi_key> <backslash> <parenright>  : "☭"   # HAMMER AND SICKLE

(which works with IBus provided that there is a defined compose key)

Even if there was a regression due to the 1.5.19 -> 1.5.21 upgrade of
ibus

* the changed behavior is upstream in nature

* a possible upstream issue would basically say: "Why does IBus no
  longer interpret my syntactically incorrect ~/.XCompose file in
  accordance with my intention?"

So I tend to think that this bug should be closed as invalid, unless you
have some convincing arguments for keeping it open. Your call. :)

Title:
  ibus in 19.10 misinterprets ~/.XCompose, somehow maps to the Delete
  key

Status in ibus package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  After upgrade to 19.10, I found that my Delete key was not working as
  a Delete key, but that instead if I hit Delete twice it would print
  the character ☭.

  Since others were not reporting this issue, I had a look around at my
  input config and remembered that I had ibus configured from a long
  time ago in order to support Chinese input.

  If I disable ibus (either by unsetting the environment variables; or
  by killing ibus-daemon), then the Delete key works again as expected.

  This is a regression in behavior since Ubuntu 19.04, where I had the
  same input setup on my desktop but the Delete key worked without
  problems.

  I'm also not sure how to disable ibus, now that I am in this
  situation; or if ibus is expected to always be running.

  The problem persists if I run ibus-setup and remove Chinese SunPinyin
  from the list of input methods, leaving only "English - English (US)".
