Title:
Chromium browser does not respect defined input method
Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu:
Expired
Bug description:
= Steps to reproduce
====================
1. Use “im-config” to select “xim” as input method. It will change
your “~/.xinputrc” file to define “xim” as selected method.
= Expected behavior
===================
1. You should be able to use your “~/.XCompose” sequences in any
program inside Ubuntu.
= Current behavior
==================
1. Your “XCompose” sequences won't work anywhere inside the Chromium
window, and any input in Chromium will behave sometimes as the
standard input (“ibus”, if I recall correctly), other times it will
ignore dead keys completely (apostrophe, quotes and grave have no
effect).
1.1. I say “sometimes” because I couldn't figure out what makes/when
it behave in any of the two ways. But both are wrong anyway, so it
does not really matter. Other programs I've tried so far (gedit,
firefox and others) work correctly all the time, i.e., I can normally
use my XCompose escape sequencies as expected.
= Rationale
===========
As of now, I need “XCompose” sequences in order to type special
characters and diacritics easily and correctly, for portuguese. As it
happens, the standard input does not provide an easy way to type
c-cedilla (ç), as the input sequence (apostrophe-c) ends with a
c-acute (ć) instead.
Therefore, I'd like Chromium to behave as the other programs do, i.e.,
using “xim” as the input method.
