Description Vít Ondruch 2023-03-02 08:15:53 UTC

Description of problem:
Switching keyboard layout fron EN to CZ when composing new email, TB keeps using EN layout.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
$ rpm -q thunderbird
thunderbird-102.8.0-1.fc39.x86_64


How reproducible:
Always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create new email
2. Switch KB layout from EN to CZ
3. Try to type Czech characters such as ěščšř

Actual results:
KB layout changes are not respected and therefore I am not able to compose layout with Czech characters


Expected results:
I am able to compose email with Czech characters



Additional info:
Please note that the KB layout changes works elsewhere (at least here in FF during writing this ticket and in my terminal)

I have tried to downgrade to the thunderbird-102.6.0-2.fc38.x86_64 I was using previously and it suffers the same issue. Please note that I updated my Rawhide system yesterday after more than month.

Might be related to bug 2173201. Is TB still using XWayland?
