Description of problem: It is not possible to type two bytes Unicode caracters. That is, when I try to type ÄÄÄÄÄÄŠšŽž (Serbian Latin) or ÐÑЧÑÐÑШÑÐж (Serbian Cyrillic) I get two characters instead of one. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Open Office 1.1.0 (from Fedora 1 Final), Open Office 1.1.1 (this package is default for Fedora 2 Final), Open Office 1.1.2 (downloaded from www.openoffice.org) How reproducible: It is always reproducible by openning Open Office, choosing Serbian Latin or Serbian Cyrillic kyeboard, and typing Serbian letters Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open Open Office 2. Choose Serbian Latin keyboard (the same as Slovenian) 3. Press key [ on English USA keyboard Actual results: á (U+0041 LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A + U+030A COMBINING RING ABOVE and U+00A1 INVERTED EXCLAMATION MARK) Expected results: Å¡ (U+0073 LATIN SMALL LETTER S + U+030C COMBINING CARON) Additional info: I have added into: <my_home_folder>/.bash_profile three lines: LANG=$LANG:sr.UTF-8 LANG=$LANG:sl.UTF-8 export LANG and now I can type Serbian letters as well as English ones, but now I cannot type Serbian letters on console that I do not needed in fact. I have not had any problems with KWrite or AbiWord before or after inserting my three lines into .bash_profile
Please update to the current version of OOo from Rawhide. It includes a fix for this problem (workaround is to _un_set your USE_XOPENIM environment variable). USE_XOPENIM= export USE_XOPENIM or for tcsh: setenv USE_XOPENIM Or, put this line right after the "here we go" line at the bottom of /usr/bin/ooffice: $ENV{USE_XOPENIM}="";
