Description of problem: After installing latest Fedora 27 Workstation Live Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Fedora-Workstation-Live-x86_64-27-20171005.n.0.iso Fedora-Workstation-Live-x86_64-27_Beta-1.5.iso How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. install Workstation Live in Japanese with setting up user in anaconda 2. setup Japanese user in gnome-initial-setup with kkc IME 3. Login to desktop 4. Start gedit 5. turn on kkc and try to input Japanese Actual results: 5. Just direct ascii input - can't input or pre-edit any Japanese characters Expected results: 5. Japanese input to work normally Additional info: Not sure yet if setting up user in Anaconda makes any difference. Workaround seems to be to add another IME using gnome-control-center.
I tried both Fedora-Workstation-Live-x86_64-27_Beta-1.5.iso and Fedora-Workstation-netinst-x86_64-27_Beta-1.5.iso doing the Install in Japanese, accepting all the defaults (except that I added a user in Anaconda) and it worked for me in both cases.
Now I tried again, Fedora-Workstation-Live-x86_64-27_Beta-1.5.iso, install in Japanese, added "English (US)" keyboard and *removed* the Japanese keyboard layout. Otherwise excepted all defaults except adding a user in Anaconda. In gnome-initial-setup I did chose kkc. Japanese input then worked immediately for me.
I always tried with setting up the user in anaconda in comment#1 and comment#2, so maybe that makes a differencė
(In reply to Mike FABIAN from comment #3) > I always tried with setting up the user in anaconda in comment#1 and > comment#2, so maybe that makes a differencė Now I tried without setting up a user in anaconda, and it *does* make a difference. Japanese input did not work immediately for me. So without creating a user in anaconda, I can reproduce the problem in comment#1.
Thanks, Mike! Moving this to gnome-initial-setup then since it looks like a regression.
This is probably also a duplicate of bug 1502827
I don't see how? That bug is about g-i-s not showing up at all. This bug is about it apparently not configuring input methods correctly. Nominating for a Final FE, because we can't fix this fully with an update - it'd still be broken for live installs, for e.g. Also marking CommonBugs in case we don't fix it, so we can document it.
This seems to be a selinux problem. After setting it to permissive I can create a user in gnome-initial-setup and set it to use IBus input sources successfully. I believe these are the relevant AVCs: Oct 26 16:50:36 localhost.localdomain audit[2899]: AVC avc: denied { map } for pid=2899 comm="systemd-localed" path="/usr/share/X11/xkb/rules/ev dev" dev="vda1" ino=394858 scontext=system_u:system_r:systemd_localed_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:usr_t:s0 tclass=file permissive=1 Oct 26 16:50:36 localhost.localdomain audit[2705]: AVC avc: denied { map } for pid=2705 comm="gsd-keyboard" path="/run/gnome-initial-setup/.conf ig/dconf/user" dev="tmpfs" ino=46979 scontext=system_u:system_r:xdm_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=unconfined_u:object_r:xdm_var_run_t:s0 tclass=file pe rmissive=1
Sounds conclusive, re-assigning. Lukas, can you take care of this?
Sure I can, builds will be available in hour.
