Summary: ibus overrides xkb layout options from gnome
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=797355
Summary: ibus overrides xkb layout options from gnome Product: Fedora Version: 16 Platform: Unspecified OS/Version: Unspecified Status: NEW Severity: unspecified Priority: unspecified Component: ibus AssignedTo: tfujiwar@redhat.com ReportedBy: petersen@redhat.com QAContact: extras-qa@fedoraproject.org CC: tfujiwar@redhat.com, i18n-bugs@lists.fedoraproject.org, shawn.p.huang@gmail.com Classification: Fedora Story Points: --- Type: --- Regression: --- Mount Type: --- Documentation: ---
Description of problem: I think this is problem is fixed in ibus-1.5pre (ie in F17) but this problem exists for F16 at least I think (probably F15 too?).
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): ibus-1.4.1-1.fc16
How reproducible: 100%
Steps to Reproduce: 1. start gnome desktop session with ibus running 2. change xkb layout options in gnome-control-center eg swap position of Ctrl and Caps, say or Alt and Super keys... 3. switch between applications
Actual results: 3. The xkb options no longer work after getting a new ibus context and the actual keyboard layout reverts to the original one in (1.)
Expected results: 3. ibus to preserve and respect the gnome xkb settings.
Additional info: Maybe hard to fix in current 1.4? Is it possible to backport the new xkb code from 1.5 say?

--- Comment #1 from fujiwara tfujiwar@redhat.com 2012-02-28 20:41:28 EST --- I think you didn't restart ibus after xkb keymaps are changed by gnome-control-center. I think the on-the-fly way needs libxklavier feature in ibus and Fedora 17 ibus uses libxklavier. Currently I don't think to back port the new features in the previous Fedora until we have the enough tests. Probably I'd like to close this as I think it's better to focus on Fedora 17 at present. Or do you wish to keep this bug?

--- Comment #2 from Jens Petersen petersen@redhat.com 2012-03-01 01:04:52 EST --- So far the only workaround I have found is to quit ibus, or to restart the desktop.
Perhaps I can list the detailed steps to reproduce and you can tell me if I am missing something?
Anyway I think it would be better to keep this open to track this problem - even if I might have moved on to F17 before it gets fixed...

--- Comment #3 from Jens Petersen petersen@redhat.com 2012-03-01 22:40:40 EST --- Fujiwara-san communicated that the correct workaround is to quit ibus first, then change the xkb layout setting in g-c-c, and then restart ibus, I think. That sounds right and I will try to test that soon.
