From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040929 Description of problem: Starting a gnome application and entering umlauts into some text-box as first character in the text-box, then deleting the character yields that the surrogate character (is this a surrogate one?) or combined character that the umlaut represents is handled as if it were two characters, that is first the diacritics (is this correct? I mean the dots above the 'u' umlaut for example) are removed leaving a plain 'u' and then the 'u' may be removed by pressing DEL a second time. This only happens when entering an umlaut as first character in any editable text-box. Any umlauts that are entered after the first umlaut are treated correctly, i.e. they are handled as one single character instead of two. I noticed that when trying to figure out why openoffice.org would not display any umlauts anymore, figuring that any GTK+ application would behave exactly the same - but that is not the case. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start gnome application 2. Enter umlauts into an editable text-box 3. DEL all umlauts Actual Results: see description Expected Results: all umlauts should be treated as one-single character and not splitted into two characters upon DEL. Additional info:
