RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit).

Thanks, Priyam

It seems related to the ibus-gtk4 immodule.
At least if I disable all IMEs or remove ibus-gtk4
then gtk4 input works normally again.

(I used Text View -> Multiple Views to avoid any other input completion feature.)

Comment 1 fujiwara 2021-08-19 09:27:08 UTC
I will rebase ibus to 1.5.25
The differences between the current RHEL9 ibus and 1.5.25:
1.  Enable sync process in GTK4 (this subject)
2.  Support set_surrounding_text with selection index
3.  Support include directive in the Compose feature
4.  Use · instead of ⎄ to display Multi_key in the Compose preedit
5.  Make Compose preedit less intrusive
6.  Enhance engine search function
7.  Support ClientDisconnectMode in ibus-x11
8.  Run ibus-daemon with the background from ibus-setup
9.  CI enhancements
10. Translation updates

Comment 2 fujiwara 2021-08-19 10:43:36 UTC
Can be moved to #1995528

Comment 4 Priyam Gupta 2021-08-27 13:56:33 UTC
