Subject: 24.3.92; <dead-acute> is undefined
Date: Fri, 04 Jul 2014 01:30:42 +0200

After upgrading to Ubuntu 14.04 (which I clearly should stop doing,
because it messed up my keybindings again, and stole C-<SPC> anf who
knows what else), I get "<dead-acute> is undefined" when I, well, press
<dead-acute>. While it might very well be Ubuntu messing things up,
emacs recognizes the key correctly and should do the right thing. (Gnome
terminal works as expected and so does xterm.)

Jan and other people who know more about X11, Gtk and input processing,
what can we do about it.  We really should get this fixed somehow for
24.4.

For this bug, just backport from trunk:

I don't know if other input methods also work, but ibus does, and I think that 
is the default in Ubuntu now.

Just checked: the trunk version does indeed work with ibus. Thanks.
