Another confusing screenshot
Another screenshot which is even more confusing because I added French, German,
and Portuguese layouts in ibus-setup and two input methods (ibus-typing-booster
and ibus-anthy).
The panel menu shows only ibus-typing-booster, ibus-anthy, and the “English -
English (US)” layout which doesn't even appear in the list of configured input
methods in ibus-setup.
The existence of that “English - English (US)” layout in the panel seems to fix
the dead key problem, apparently if a layout is there, ibus handles the dead
keys.
And showing the other layouts configured in ibus-setup in the panel probably
makes no sense because ibus cannot switch the keyboard layouts in
Plasma(Wayland) anyway.
So it is certainly an improvement because it fixes the dead key problem but it
looks confusing.

screenshot showing Portuguese layout in ibus-setup but English layout in the
ibus panel menus
I tried to test whether the update fixes the problem. I think it does.
When I repeat the test described in this comment
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2088656#c7
it works!
When I have only the “Portuguese - Portuguese (Brazil)” set in ibus-setup and
the us and the br keyboard layouts set in the KDE control center, select the br
layout and reboot, then the dead keys work after the reboot. No ibus icon is
shown in the panel then.
There is some weird behaviour though:
If I add another input method in ibus-setup, for example ibus-typing-booster in
addition to the “Portuguese - Portuguese (Brazil)” layout, and reboot again,
then dead keys still work fine and are apparently handled by ibus as I see the
dead key preview.
In the panel I see an ibus icon now. Clicking on it shows me a menu with
ibus-typing-booster and the “English - English (US)” keyboard layout.
Which is a bit weird because in ibus-setup there is the “Portuguese -
Portuguese (Brazil)” layout!
On top of that there is the already known problem that the ibus menus from the
panel sometimes don’t close correctly, in the screenshot one sees the menu
shown on left mouse click and the one shown on right mouse click at the same
time!
