revised patch for gtk2 none

Description Akira TAGOH 2012-06-05 10:31:17 UTC 
Description of problem:
After the upstream fix of https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=603559, setting multiple immodules for fallback works on gtk3 applications. however it breaks gtk2 applications because it doesn't parse :-separated list and tries to find immodules out as is. there are no way to avoid it since they are sharing the same XSETTINGS key. so backporting the fix is only way to go IMHO.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gtk2-2.24.10-1.fc17.x86_64

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.enable org.gnome.desktop.interface.show-input-method-menu to see what's going on.
2.run any gtk2 applications
3.imsettings-switch -n ibus
4.imsettings-switch -n none
  
Actual results:
3 or 4 may not take effects when looking at the input method menu.

Expected results:
3 and 4 should take effects immediately.

Subject: [PATCH] Allow fallback for input method modules

Accept a :-separated list of module names in GTK_IM_MODULE and
the corresponding setting, to deal a bit better with broken
situations.
Comment 2 Matthias Clasen 2012-06-05 21:07:55 UTC 
Thanks, Akira.

I've pushed this patch upstream in the gtk-2-24 branch now. I'll get to doing a 2.24.x release hopefully in the next few weeks, and we'll get this fix into F17 and F18 then. Or, if you want this resolved earlier, feel free to put the patch into our Fedora packages and push an update.

Great. thanks.

Hmm, I should try to apply the patch for Fedora since someone else also is aware of this issue.
