Subject: bug#518: Dutch input method flooded with Turkish conversation sequences
Date: Wed,  2 Jul 2008 15:40:59 +0100 (IST)
When I set the input method to "dutch", and I type an 's' followed by a comma (which is as common in Dutch as it is in English) I get ş (s with a squiggle).  Further, it seems that all characters that are needed for typing in Turkish have been given a key sequence in the Dutch input method. For someone who just wants to write in Dutch, this is frustrating enough for the dutch input method to be not worth using.
