[Bug 2012788] Re: Entering Unicode characters with code points broken

[Gunnar Hjalmarsson]

If I install ibus 1.5.28-2 from experimental on Debian, there is no code
point issue. While the source is identical with 1.5.28-2 on Ubuntu, the
binaries on Debian were built with older versions of some libraries.

I'm not sure that the problem lies in glib. It's simply my intuition. ;)

Title:
  Entering Unicode characters with code points broken

Status in glib2.0 package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in ibus package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  On an updated lunar, following this instruction:

  https://help.ubuntu.com/stable/ubuntu-help/tips-
  specialchars.html#ctrlshiftu

  no longer works. If I press for instance

  Ctrl+Shift+U followed by 2014

  I see u2014 (underlined) on the screen. But it's not replaced with the
  expected character (in this case an Em Dash) when I confirm with Space
  or Enter — it just disappears.
