Public bug reported: Note: a new version is coming: I'm creating this bug report mainly to help others identifying the issues.
With Glib 2.80.1, I'm no longer able to type special characters like ~`àéè, etc. The bug has already been fixed upstream: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib/-/issues/3353 It is part of the 2.80.2: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib/-/releases/2.80.2 2.80.2 is in the proposed repo: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/glib2.0 This bug is particularly annoying if you have such special characters in your password, it affects all apps using Glib 2.80.1. So the apps installed from Snap are not affected as they are using an older version of Glib. Workaround: sudo apt install libglib2.0-bin=2.80.0-6ubuntu1 gir1.2-glib-2.0=2.80.0-6ubuntu1 libglib2.0-data=2.80.0-6ubuntu1 libglib2.0-0t64=2.80.0-6ubuntu1 gir1.2-glib-2.0-dev=2.80.0-6ubuntu1 libglib2.0-dev=2.80.0-6ubuntu1 libgirepository-2.0-0=2.80.0-6ubuntu1 libglib2.0-dev-bin=2.80.0-6ubuntu1 (or install the packages from "proposed") ** Affects: glib2.0 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Fix Committed ** Changed in: glib2.0 (Ubuntu) Status: New => Fix Committed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2066860 Title: Oracular: Glib 2.80.1 breaks IBus support: unable to type ~`àéè... chars To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/glib2.0/+bug/2066860/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
