In recent beta versions, I'm unable to type any characters with diacritics. Some examples:

ěščřžýáíéúů

These character are not written at all. Pretty annoying, please fix ASAP.

Debian x86_64 sid/exp, Gnome 3.14.1.

Probably relates to #781 (disobeying XIM). These links should hopefully be of use to the widget writers:

Edit: FLTK source code fltk-1.3.2/src/xutf8/test.c should contain minimal working (but not pretty) XIM support

Honestly I have no knowledge of XIM/ibus and similar things.
But what I do know is it was working just fine like month or two ago. So this is not something that was never working, it was just broken recently. Sounds like they messed something up in their steam-runtime thing.

Bump, still a valid issue, pretty serious blocker. Does anyone even care?

The problem still persists
In my case on fresh installed Ubuntu 21.10

Nothing extracted yet.
