Bug ID: 2290842 Summary: Unable to switch input method using Super+Space in KDE Plasma 6 Wayland Product: Fedora Version: 40 Hardware: x86_64 OS: Linux Status: NEW Component: ibus Keywords: i18n Severity: medium Assignee: tfujiwar@redhat.com Reporter: rajeeshknambiar@gmail.com QA Contact: extras-qa@fedoraproject.org CC: i18n-bugs@lists.fedoraproject.org, tfujiwar@redhat.com Target Milestone: --- Classification: Fedora
Configured ibus on KDE Plasma Wayland correctly, no IM env vars set and everything is working fine on `ibus-1.5.30-1.fc40.x86_64`. I have two input methods configured (English & ml-mozhi), and switch between them using Super+Space keys in both Qt & GTK apps.
Since updating to `ibus-1.5.30-2.fc40.x86_64`, unable to switch input method using Super+Space. No popup appears, and input method remains in English. It is still possible to switch input method by clicking on the system tray icon; but it is not convenient. Tested with `ibus-1.5.30-3.fc40.x86_64`, issue remains.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open a new file using KWrite and focus on it 2. Press Super+Space keys Actual Results: Notice that input method is not switched, literal 'space' is entered
Expected Results: Input method switched to next configured method (ml-mozhi in my case).

--- Comment #2 from Rajeesh rajeeshknambiar@gmail.com --- Confirmed that 1.5.30-5 fixes input method switching using Super+Space in Plasma Wayland. Thanks for the quick fix!
Though, I notice that there was a regression with 1.5.30-2 that ignores the Compose key. I have set Right-Ctrl as compose key and it was working fine with 1.5.30-1. It is not working now (from 1.5.30-2 till 1.5.30-5).

I don't think The Right-Ctrl worked in ibus 1.5.30-1 but I guess you disabled ibus instead.
Currently IBus does not support compose keys in Plasma Wayland and it's a known issue: https://github.com/ibus/ibus/issues/2579 You saved the compose key in the desktop setting and IBus needs to read the configuration in Wayland. IBus can run `setxkbmap -query` for Xorg compose keys but that way does not work in Wayland.
