System Information
Operating system: Linux-6.2.0-36-generic-x86_64-with-glibc2.35 64 Bits, X11 UI (Ubuntu 22.04LTS)

Blender Version
Broken: 3.0 and all versions ever since - at the moment on version: 4.1.0 e368a72f2067
Worked: 2.92 (I couldn't get 2.93 to run here, but it probably works too)

Short description of error

I cannot use dead keys to create accents anywhere in Blender (Text Editor, datablock names, ...).

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error

  • Rename your scene by typing: "ÁÉÜ" (type first the accent, then the letter). Nothing happens (no character is input).

Note, in all cases (when it works or not) I get this warning on the console:

Bad keycode lookup. Keysym 0x0 Status: XLookupNone
'' 0x7f0d7b72fb80 0x7f0da5439d80

Can confirm on my Debian testing systems too, same error, and same issue whether using dead keys or compose key.
