I assume you're referring to my comment regarding bug #304680 where
I patched /usr/share/X11/locale/locale.dir and /usr/share/X11/locale/compose.dir.
This is most likely *not* to be root cause of the problem of other people
than me, since it's only relevant if you're using the eo_XX.UTF-8 locale.
IWhich is why you don't observe any improvement after applying the patch.

Which locale are you using? You can find out by entering the 'locale'
command from shell. On my machine (where compose key now works
after tweaking /usr/share/X11/locale/{locale,compose}.dir:

$ locale
LANG=eo_XX.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE="eo_XX.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="eo_XX.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="eo_XX.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="eo_XX.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="eo_XX.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="eo_XX.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="eo_XX.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="eo_XX.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="eo_XX.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="eo_XX.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="eo_XX.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="eo_XX.UTF-8"
