Description Mike FABIAN 2016-12-07 16:28:38 UTC
Created attachment 1229129 [details]
font-settings-of-ibus-are-ignored-xfce.png

I installed Fedora-Workstation-netinst-x86_64-25-1.3.iso in qemu
and then installed other desktops using dnf.

Then I used ibus on the Xfce desktop.

Changing the font does not work (This worked in Fedora 24).

See the attached screenshot.

I did choose “Liberation Sans Regular” in the rather big size
24, but the candidate list is still being displayed in a small font.

In the terminal one can see that the dconf setting  is correct.

Yes, I know it.

Comment 2 fujiwara 2017-01-11 04:39:33 UTC
There are two issues.

For Fedora 25, GTK 3.22 dropped the Pango format and need this patch:
https://github.com/ibus/ibus/commit/aacf5adbba9b9b34a1ec07005e670d209513fb5b

For Fedora 24, IBus didn't build with GTK 3.20 or later and need to rebuild without any changes. I thought releng would rebuilt it and forgot it.
