Bug#484077: upgrade-reports: Two Greek Polytonic diacritics no longer available

Package: upgrade-reports
Severity: important

  • System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers oldstable APT policy: (500, 'oldstable'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-6-686 Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8)

Polytonic Greek works in Etch by copying the Greek Compose file into the US Compose file (sudo cp /usr/share/X11/locale/el_GR.UTF-8/Compose /usr/share/X11/locale/en_US.UTF-8/Compose) and adding (for GNOME) the line <GTK_IM_MODULE=xim> to the /etc/environment file. For KDE the coppying of the Compose file is enough.
Following upgrade to Lenny, the workaround is no longer able to produce on screen the Psili <᾿> and Dasseia <῾> diacritics, while it keeps functioning correcτly for Oxeia <΄>, Bareia <`>, Perispomeni <῀>, Hypogegrammeni <ͺ> and Diairessis <¨> and their various combinations.
