Summary: Unable to type french accented characters
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.3.24
          Platform: x86
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]

French is not my locale in Ubuntu, however, I need it in wine applications as
well as in Ubuntu native applications. Using the keyboard shortcut
(Shift+CapsLock), I can change the keyboard layout in Ubuntu to french azerty
and that is also well recognized in wine.

The problem is, that when I try to type a french accented letter (e.g. è,à,ê),
it only types the unaccented equivalent (e,a,e). This happens in Wine's Notepad
as well as in other applications.
