Description of problem: Not sure if this is the correct component to report on.
Dead keys stopped working for some applications, not sure when. I'm using Gnome, layout is Finland layout, keyboard model is Evdev-managed keyboard. They seem to work in all GTK applications (tested: gedit, firefox, x-chat) and also QT applications (qtconfig-qt4), but not on some (xterm, emacs).
Also tried with Sweden layout and Generic 105-key (Intl) PC model with same problems. I'm unable to set the "Default" radio-button in keyboard preferences but the layout changes if I drag&drop the wanted layout to first in list.

How reproducible: Always.
Steps to Reproduce: 1. start xterm or emacs 2. try to input ~ using dead-key combination of "altgr" + "~" + "space"
Actual results: xterm: A plain space character. emacs: Error message "<dead-tilde> is undefined"
Expected results: I should be getting the correct character "~".
Additional info: The following error message comes from imsettings-applet everytime I press any key on xterm (including modifiers like shift and alt): [BUG][ 1238531428.714163] xim_proxy_client_protocol_real_xim_forward_event: The pending key event counter is overflowed
And the following warning comes from imsettings-applet when I start xterm: W[ 1238531541.790674]:Error while processing a value type NestedList: Error while processing a value type XFontSet: Unable to compose a value type XFontSet properly due to the size difference: expected size: 129, actual size: 132
