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 should 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

Do we still need it for X11, right?

Yes, we do.

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.
