keyboard producing diacritics (acute accent, dot-above, cedilla-below)

[George R Goffe]

Hi,

System is Fedora 27 x86_64 (rawhide), fully up to date with the rawhide repo.

Firefox and Opera are producing diacritics (acute accent, dot-above, cedilla-below) when I type in text windows. Other apps such as konsole seem to work just fine and I have not seen this problem elsewhere.

locale says:

LANG=en_US.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=

Any/all hints/tips/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

George...

I just installed a fresh system (KDE desktop) using
Fedora-KDE-Live-x86_64-Rawhide-20170714.n.0.iso followed by a "dnf update".  No
problems with input firefox as far as I can tell.

But, since you're talking about F27/Rawhide you may be better served on the test list.
