Can the more expert on the list have a look at this link?
http://fr.rpmfind.net/linux/RPM/fedora/devel/i386/iiimf-qt-12.1.1-15.svn2509.i386.html
Do a find in the document for "european"
Also google for 
leif-unit-latin-fixes-r2060.patch

I reported this problem back in December, I had deadkeys working previously 
then it stopped at some point.
Currently using SUSE 9.3, at least I can now use the "edit text" option.

Thanks Edson
