The comments on this bug are so ridiculous - it would be funny if it wasn't sad.
1. The request is for a new layout. 2. It does not affect any existing layout. 3. It is to help Portuguese-Brazilian users. 4. It does not affect anyone else. 5. Opinions on whether ' + c should or should not produce ç are irrelevant. What is needed is someone with the knowledge and/or the will to create a new layout. If you cannot help with this, please don't get in the way. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gtk+2.0 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/518056 Title: cedilla appears as accented c (ć instead of ç) when typing 'c Status in “gtk+2.0” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: When typing in a US-international keyboard with dead-keys (or UK-international), typing 'c results in an accented c instead of a cedilla. There is a workaround, which is editing the /usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/immodule-files.d/libgtk2.0-0.immodules file and changing the line "cedilla" "Cedilla" "gtk20" "/usr/share/locale" "az:ca:co:fr:gv:oc:pt:sq:tr:wa" to "cedilla" "Cedilla" "gtk20" "/usr/share/locale" "az:ca:co:fr:gv:oc:pt:sq:tr:wa:en" (add the 'en' at the end). However, every time some update on this file is applied, one looses the change, and we get back to the accented c. That means having to modify the file again, logout and login. For me this is no problem. But for my brother, mom, dad, etc, it is always something that at least makes me less proud of having convinced them to use Ubuntu, because they don't know what to do each time this happens. I think we really need a configurable keyboard layout, or at least (and that would be very easy), the inclusion of alternate layouts on install that for the dead-key options (as US-deadkey and UK-deakey), alternate layouts as US-deadkey-cedilla. This change is relevant for at least Portuguese and French.
