[Pkg-ime-devel] Bug#749298: ibus works erratically if at all in newest gnome (recent testing-full-upgrade-to-sid)

I have found a way to reproduce some bugginess. Whenever I restart X
(Alt+F2 "r"), I start typing in Chinese fine though I cannot "turn off"
Chinese input (I may or may not have to fiddle with input methods, though I
do not update my input method ...).
Then, in order to regain English-typing ability, I have to change my
default keyboard manually to something else (in this case, from Eng Dvorak
to Eng US) and back, and then I regain my main English typing ability. If I
want to type in Chinese again, I simply have to repeat and restart X again
with Alt+F2 "r".

Thanks.
