[Scribus] Accents in pt_BR (iso8859-1)

[edson.richter at mgrinformatica.com.br]

I'm trying scribus 1.2.1, but I can't get accents types using dead keys when typing directly
into text frame.
If I select "Edit text", I can type accents using dead keys, but when I confirm content
("Update content and exit" button), the text is truncated until first accent vowel.

I started scribus from terminal, and I found the following message every time I type a
accent vowel:

"
sending IMStart with 0 chars to 0x839ce10
sending IMEnd with 1 chars to 0x839ce10, text=?
"

As I can see, the char is beign typed, but the text frame don't accept it.

If I "insert special", works fine, either directly in frame, or in "Edit text" window.

I'll appreciate any help,
