Bug#1115532: libgtk-4-1: compose and dead keys not working anymore on wayland

[Frederic Peters]

Package: libgtk-4-1
Version: 4.20.1+ds-2
Severity: normal

Hi,

After upgrading from 4.18.6 to 4.20.1 compose and dead keys (e.g. ^ then e on a.
French layout keyboard) stopped working; typing compose ' e inputs 'e instead.
of é, typing ^e inputs "e" instead of "ê".

Switching back to a X11 session restored the expected behaviour.

Have a nice day,
