Description sam 2018-09-10 20:50:14 UTC
Description of problem:
After changing input to Korean, I cannot type in Korean.
Older version lets me type in Korean.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

    ibus-hangul.x86_64                                         1.5.1-1.fc28                                          

How reproducible:

Reproduced easily by updating to the latest version of ibus-hangul package.


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Update ibus-hangul package
2. Restart ibus-daemon
3. Select Korean input
4. Type something in Korean

Actual results:
English letters are typed

Expected results:
Korean letters are typed

Additional info:
By downgrading ibus-hangul package, I can type in Korean fine.

    sudo dnf install ibus-hangul-1.5.0-12.fc28.x86_64 
    ibus-daemon -r

Then, selecting Korean and typing Korean works fine.

Problematic version is ibus-hangul-1.5.1-1.fc28.x86_64

Did you type Shift-space key after you enabled ibus-hangul?

Comment 2 Peng Wu 2018-09-11 04:33:32 UTC
Maybe this issue is GSettings related.

How about to change the default setting of 'initial-input-mode' to 'hangul'?

So, after getting to hangul,  and pressing Shift-space, I can type in Korean.
Thanks.

Older version didn't require me to press Shift-space.
I don't know what this is. But, it's working. https://github.com/ibus/ibus/wiki/ChewingUserGuide#halffull-shape-sub-mode

Comment 4 sam 2018-09-12 13:56:08 UTC
I changed ibus-setup so that ibus-hangul starts in Hangul mode, eliminating the need to type Shift-space.

    ibus-setup

to start IBus Preference dialog
Input Method tab > Korean - Hangul > Preferences > check Start in Hangul mode

Comment 5 fujiwara 2018-09-13 03:30:43 UTC
I think ibus-hangul maintainers changed the default.
Probably the maintainers would think Korean users would not have to switch engines since most Korean users would use a single language. If you use multiple languages, you may like to change the default mode.
Personally I have a strong option about this but it's fine that the mode can be customized.

Comment 6 Peng Wu 2018-09-13 05:08:59 UTC
Anyway, I created one pull request for this setting.

Sorry, typo.
Personally I don't have a strong opinion about this but it's fine that the mode can be customized.

I don't think GSettings migration changed the default value:
