Public bug reported:
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)".
