Bug #: 31291 Summary: Unable to input german umlaut characters with certain locales Product: Wine Version: unspecified Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: ldm@gmx.at Classification: Unclassified
I can not type german Umlaut characters äöü when i have the locale
en_DK.utf8
however if I set it to
en_US.utf8 or de_DE
it works! This is independet from the keyboard layout. Copy-pasting into the wine application works in any case and the characters are displayed correctly. Inputing german characters should work equaly well in any locale and only depend on the keyboard layout. In any case it should work in en_DK.utf8 just as well as in en_US.utf8 since both are english and both are unicode. Tested with wine-1.5.9.
