I'm not sure of anything because I don't know what this fuss about polytonic
is. Synaptic package manager claims it's installed.
Thanks! I don't see how this way is any different from the built-in polytonic
keyboard. Are you sure that the "fonts-sil-galatia" package is enabled?
Control Center --> Keyboard --> Layout --> Add --> Greece (polytonic)
Trisquel Menu --> Accessories --> Onboard
Could you please post a screenshot of the relevant setting?
Select layout and launch Onboard virtual keyboard.

I can't tell if I'm in the ballpark but judge for yourself.
$ sudo apt install fonts-sil-galatia
Install package 'fonts-sil-galatia' and try again.
This is what I get after installation (Onboard on-screen keyboard).

should work.
"Surely the Greek layout is similar."
It works as you say for some keys, but not for others. Plus, all the possible
combinations of diacritics do not seem to be available, as they are in macOS
by default.
"Because of this, I use IBus directly, and have the IBus input switcher

It's a dead key, right? So just press that key like normal, and then
the letter it's supposed to modify. Pressing the dead key will not
print anything to the screen.
For example, on the UK QWERTY layout with dead keys, you press the `
key and nothing shows up, but when you press e directly
