[Pkg-ime-devel] Bug#723031: ibus activation problems

[Osamu Aoki]

Package: ibus
Version: 1.5.3-7
Severity: important

ibus 1.5 have few problems to activate.  (Other than mozc is broken now.)

This is meant to be tracking bug for me to check/record situation.

* ibus setting

>From gnome-control-center (1:3.4.3.1-5+b3) in unstable, ibus should be
selectable.  But now no meu entry does not exist there.  Of course
ibus-setup, run from consiole or from right-clicking icon to start
preference, can set ibus.  But this is not supposed to be like this.

* ibus swiching

>From ibus 1.5, SUPER-SPACE should change IM engine.

But currently we need to press SUPPER once befor pressing SUPER-SPACE
together to get expected result.

Both of these can be avoided if GNOME 3.8 with proper patches are
installed.

Right now experimental archive is not easy even for me.  But I once
patched gnome-control-center and gnome-settings-daemon to get expected
results.
