Description Jens Petersen 2023-08-15 06:57:39 UTC
With ibus-1.5.29 in Fedora 29, QT_IM_MODULE and GTK_IM_MODULE should no longer be set for KDE Plasma Wayland.

Can you make such a change to imsettings, please?

Without that the behavior of ibus in Plasma Wayland is really bad.
(This change should not be made for Plasma X11.)

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. env | grep MODULE
Actual Results:  
GTK_IM_MODULE=ibus
QT_IM_MODULE=ibus

Expected Results:  
GTK_IM_MODULE and QT_IM_MODULE to be unset in Plasma Wayland

Comment 1 Akira TAGOH 2023-08-15 07:44:31 UTC
Do we still need it for X11, right?

Yes, we do.

Comment 3 Akira TAGOH 2023-08-17 14:01:21 UTC
One more question. This report requests to unset GTK_IM_MODULE too. does IBus 1.5.29 work without GSettings and GTK_IM_MODULE on Plasma-wayland?

Yes, it does. Those environment variables need to be unset.

Comment 5 Jens Petersen 2023-08-21 16:04:15 UTC
Seems imsettings-plasma was dropped from @input-methods:

https://pagure.io/fedora-comps/c/7553747fb0e4c1c6b97935dde1443e27de5fa3da?branch=main
https://pagure.io/fedora-comps/c/98e56a9cf0425b76e9a0e8237113d87ad0b4cafa?branch=main

So we may need to retest but this could this affect Plasma X11 aversely?

Comment 6 Neal Gompa 2023-08-21 18:16:21 UTC
The way this gets set needs to be changed then to only activate when a Plasma X11 session is used. It currently does it unconditionally.

Comment 7 Akira TAGOH 2023-08-22 02:33:54 UTC
I'm going to update imsettings for this.

Just a note
To get this fixed completely, we need to update ibus.conf too

See #2233527
