Hi there,

I just got a new laptop and installed the newest LTS Ubuntu version.
To my surprise, Ubuntu still cannot produce ç properly out-of-the-box in
the regular way when using the "US international with dead keys" layout.

I wonder why this behavior keeps continuing to be the default. We're in
2019 and I really didn't expect this to keep happening.

"Ć" is a character that is used in Polish (38.5 million speakers) and
apparently also Croatian (6 millions speakers) and some related languages
when using loanwords.
"Ç" on the other hand, is used by Portuguese (215-260 million speakers),
French (80 million native, 270 million total speakers), Turkish (75
million), Catalan (4-10million), Albanian (5 million), Azerbaijani (23
million), plus at least Tatar, Turkmen, Kurdish and Zazaki, Friulian,
Ligurian and Occitan.

It's also the standard behavior on Windows or MacOS.

Of course, as a developer, I can go there and fix this myself. But is this
really the kind of desired experience for a good chunk of the world's
population if they ever decide to try Ubuntu?
