Bug#1072720: libglib2.0-0: Following fix #1070745, typing `A keys doesn't type an À anymore

[grunt2 at laposte.net]

‌My im-config shows:

Current configuration for the input method:
 * Default mode defined in /etc/default/im-config: 'auto'
 * Active configuration: 'missing' (normally missing)
 * Normal automatic choice: 'ibus' (normally ibus or fcitx5)
 * Override rule: 'zh_CN,fcitx5:zh_TW,fcitx5:zh_HK,fcitx5:zh_SG,fcitx5'
 * Current override choice: '' (Locale='fr_FR')
 * Current automatic choice: 'ibus'
 * Number of valid choices: 1 (normally 1)
 * Desktop environment: 'GNOME'
The configuration set by im-config is activated by re-starting the system.
La sélection explicite n'est pas nécessaire pour permettre la configuration automatique si la sélection active est default/auto/cjkv/missing.

I'm using an Azerty French Keyboard, where the backtick is the grave accent on the 7 key (Alt + 7) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AZERTY#/media/File:KB_France.svg‌
(I call it the backtick, because it's also the character I type for markdown code formatting like `myObject.Fcn()`. But maybe I give it a bad name?)

Whatever, I'm sure that typing the ` under my 7 key followed by an A should return an À, like it once did, and that it doesn't do that anymore.
And I am also sure that it doesn't do that anymore since the bug that happened and affected the dead keys, and that its fix isn't complete.

What desktop environment, what keyboard layout and what input method
are you using? And what application are you typing this into?

If your backtick key is really a backtick (like the key printed with `
in the British English keyboard layout) then `A is the expected result.

If your backtick key is a "dead key" grave accent (like the key printed
with ` in some other national and international keyboard layouts) then
À is the expected result.

Have you rebooted since upgrading libglib2.0-0 to version
2.74.6-2+deb12u2?

Are any warning messages logged in the systemd Journal, from either the
application you are using, or ibus?

Or if you run an affected application from a terminal (gnome-terminal
or xterm or similar), are any warning messages logged in that terminal?
