I had some troubles with c cedilla (like Ç, instead Ć). In Brazil we type ' + c (acute plus c) to do ć. But when running Firefox32 with Kubuntu 64 bits, GTK fails to load the 32 bit cedilla IM module. GTK always load the 64 bit module version.
I workaround it changing the internal references to the string "cedilla" from the im-cedilla.so 32 bit version to "cedil32" and setting the environment variable GTK_IM_MODULE to cedil32 (only to Firefox32 - I change its script). Also I include the im-cedil32.so into the 64 bit GTK IM module configuration file:
/usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/immodule-files.d/libgtk2.0-0.immodules
I include the following two lines:
"/usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/immodules/im-cedil32.so"
"cedil32" "Cedil32" "gtk20" "/usr/share/locale" "az:ca:co:fr:gvct:sq:tr:wa:en:us"

Now after many search and trying, I can type '+c to get ć
