Yes, Heinrich, on the surface this seems to be an ibus issue. But I think the root cause lies in some package which ibus is built with.
If I downgrade to the binaries built by ibus 1.5.28-1 on February 23, using code points works fine. In 1.5.28-2 two upstream commits were added as patches, but if I now build ibus with those patches disabled, it doesn't help. A no-change rebuild does not help either. Maybe glib is the culprit? ibus 1.5.28-1 was built with glib 2.74. ** Also affects: glib2.0 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to glib2.0 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2012788 Title: Entering Unicode characters with code points broken To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/glib2.0/+bug/2012788/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
