Hi Sven,

In the end, the only way I managed to input accented and oriental
characters at the same time is to use mule-ucs with the environment
variable DEB_MULEUCS_UNICODE=on and the followign .emacs:

(when (not window-system)
  (set-keyboard-coding-system locale-coding-system)
  (set-terminal-coding-system locale-coding-system)
)

If this is not disruptive, any chance to get it fixed in Etch ? I really
think that it is important that applications use unicode by default, or
at least provide a simple way to do so.

Have a nice day,
