The latest development version of the Mozilla port, compiled with gtk2, shows a pretty annoying bug for non-english users: carets and other dead keys cannot be entered in forms and such. The bugzilla database has the whole story: http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=176713 is the original bug, which actually depends on: http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=176514 which appeared because XIM was disabled as described in: http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=176514#c5 Fix: [note that I'm still waiting confirmation from the Mozilla developpers that my patch is sane, but it looks ok and works] The port can carry the following patch: And this should be put in the files section of the master port. This patch is also available in bugzilla: http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/attachment.cgi?id=116566&action=view How-To-Repeat: 1. Start mozilla-gtk2-1.3b 2. try to type a dead key (say a caret) followed by a "e" You should see "ê", but instead "e" shows up.
