This issue present in openSuSE 11.2 x86_64 Final + Updates, KDE4-4.3.1, till openSuSE 11.4 x86_64 Final + Updates, KDE4-4.6.0 (i. e. KDE4 4.3.1-4.6.0).


When the functions Capitalize, Uppercase, Lowercase in Tools (or through
KeyBoard shortcuts) are used in Kwrite, a problem applying accents arises, and
is solved when Kwrite is restarted.
The normal behavior is: (')+a => á, v. gr.
But after using any of the above functions, the following happens:
(') +a => á, v. gr.
So, a sentence like this:
La construcción semiótica del horror...
is rendered as:
La construcci'on semi'otica del horror...

Reproducible: Always
