Description Kenichi Takemura 2010-06-30 04:18:44 UTC 
Description of problem:

imsettings-stop cannot stop IBus running in a case provided in steps.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
imsettings-0.108.0-3.2.el6.x86_64
RHEL Version:Red Hat Enterprise Linux Workstation release 6.0 Beta (Santiago)
Kernel:2.6.32-37.el6.x86_64


How reproducible:
everytime I have test.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Enable IBus from im-chooser
2. type # imsettings-stop from a terminal
   (Stopped IBus)
3. type # imsettings-start from a terminal
   (Started none)
4. Enable IBus from im-chooser
5. type # imsettings-start from a terminal
   (Unable to keep Input method running)
6. type # imsettings-stop from a terminal
   (No Input Method running...)

Actual results:

Step3: Cannot start IBus by imsettings-start
Step6: Cannot stop IBus by imsettings-stop

Expected results:

Step3: Can start IBus by imsettings-start
Step6: Can stop IBus by imsettings-stop

> 3. type # imsettings-start from a terminal

This is correct behaviour. you have to do imsettings-stop -n to avoid updating your .xinputrc.

> 4. Enable IBus from im-chooser
> 5. type # imsettings-start from a terminal
>    (Unable to keep Input method running)

This is also correct behaviour. you have to do imsettings-start --cond-start to avoid trying to invoke IM twice.

> 6. type # imsettings-stop from a terminal
>    (No Input Method running...)

Since imsettings is capable to keep the status of multiple IMs on track but one for one IM, this is also correct behaviour since imsettings thinks ibus session is closed by the error at step 5.
