Description marcdeop 2021-03-19 16:33:11 UTC

Description of problem:

Diacritics cannot be type using dead keys under Wayland. I am running a plasma session on wayland and characters like á, à, ä and so on are not "typeable" on Qt apps (kwrita, kate, neochat, telegram...).


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 5.15.2


How reproducible: Start a KDE wayland session


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Just try to type any diacritic sign on Qt apps

Actual results: a


Expected results: á


Additional info:

This seems to be a know bug:
https://community.kde.org/Plasma/Wayland_Showstoppers#Input
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=411729
https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-87088

There is a MR: https://codereview.qt-project.org/c/qt/qtwayland/+/338196

When settings these env variables:
GTK_IM_MODULE=ibus
XMODIFIERS=@im=ibus
QT_IM_MODULE=ibus

Apps seem to behave properly.

Comment 1 Geraldo Simião 2021-03-29 19:19:37 UTC

I was experiencing the same bug here, then I tried the workarround suggested by Marc at the description (editing the /etc/environment config) and it worked fine. Now I can type è é â õ on any app at plasma wayland. :D

Fedora 34 (KDE Plasma Prerelease) x86_64 / Kernel: 5.11.10-300.fc34.x86_64 / Plasma 5.21.3 / Qt: 5.15.2 / Frameworks: 5.80.0

Question: Can this be arranged on the installation of F34 kde spin (insert this three line on the env file? Or its better to wait for upstream for the right fix?

Comment 11 Geraldo Simião 2022-04-22 18:05:18 UTC

Today after another reboot I realised the bug only appear on tlegram-desktop, not on any other program. Firefox, libreoffice, kwrite, konsole, all are working fine. 
I should open a ticket at rpmfusion bugzilla.
Sorry for the inconvenience :/
