Upgrade REGRESSION

$ lsb_release -rd
Description:    Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS
Release:        16.04

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

I just upgraded from 15.10 to 16.04 this morning.  Everything seemed
fine until I opened some translating work in libreoffice.  Trying to
type the letter combination n with a háček  ˇ + n = ň, for example the
word "Mňau", I found that whenever I hit the key with the háček symbol ˇ
the háček automatically appears. In the traditional czech keyboard the
first stroke of the ˇ should not produce anything until the second
keystroke e.g. 'n', which will then produce the correct combination ň.
The most common combinations are available through what would be the
number keys in an english keyboard, however combinations with some
consonants and with capital letters require two strokes.

I also checked this in GVIM and the behaviour is the same.  The first stroke on 
the háček ˇ or the čárka ´ (same key but not shifted) immediately produces the 
character without waiting for the second stroke. I can work around this using 
spellcheck and replacing and then copying the correct combination where it 
might be needed.  However, this has long been working in earlier Ubuntu 
installations even across upgrades from 14.10 to 15.04 and from 15.04 to 15.10. 
    
   
WHAT WAS EXPECTED

Using the háček or čárka key on the czech keyboard [´|ˇ] the system
would wait for a second keystroke to produce the correct diacritic and
letter combination, as in the past.

WHAT HAPPENED INSTEAD

As soon as the  háček or čárka key was pressed, the diacritic appeared
before the second keystroke.  The correct combination cannot be made.
