Thank you for your replies
I am using Debian Stable (bullseye) with KDE.

@Juan and @Gerald. Yes, your way work. It works differently respect to 
what i was using which
actually composes two characters, you first select the modifier, then 
select the letter.
Quite powerful and flexible.

@Ken. Yah Ken, i think you spot the hot point. It is the composition 
that is ignored.
I can C, but this seems too advanced for my current level of total 
ignorance about the VM workings.

I will keep Juan and Gerald method for the moment and put composition in 
the desiderata.

Bye
Nicola
