[Bug 393057] [NEW] compose key working only on kde apps and not gtk ones

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

I have KDE 4 installed on top of ubuntu.

i encountered this issue of not being able to type accented characters
such as ñ, using the Compose key in KDE apps, e.g. the Search box in the
Kickoff menu, or Kate.

I can only do this in "GTK" apps. I tried this on Firefox (where I typed
this post), GEdit, and OpenOffice. They all work.

I did try System Settings -> Regional ... -> Keyboard Layout ->
Advanced, and set Right Alt to be Compose key. Nothing. It just produces
~n.
