A dead key is called dead because if you press it it does not give a
character itself, but only if you press another key afterwards.
The keyboard configuration in KDE can be changed in the KDE control center
in Accessibility/Keyboard Layout.. There you can also define a custom
compose key. I use the right win key as compose.
For testing if your keyboard works as intended you can use the xev
program that comes with x.org or xfree.

For further help I would need to know about your specific keyboard layout
and linux distribution.

If it does not work for you inside scribus you might want to consider
typing your text in an editor like kate or kwrite and copying the text for
now.
