Concerning the pt_PT: The portuguese from Portugal, although it has its 
differences relative to brazilian
portuguese, has the same accents and it also requires the cedilla the same way, 
so I suspected that they
had the same problem. I checked, then, the existence of the same tipe of claim 
in forums from Portugal,
using Google 
(https://www.google.pt/?gws_rd=ssl#q=cedilha+ubuntu&tbs=ctr:countryPT&cr=countryPT).

Indeed, we can find exactly the same problem for them. Although, as Portugal 
has 5% the population of Brazil,
the number of posts is much smaller.

Therefore, I think that the fix for this problem should be applied to pt_PT 
too. And, if there is any other
variation of portuguese (I am not sure if there is one for Angola, Moçambique, 
etc.), they all sould be 
fixed.

Leandro.

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.
