I 've spent a good few additional hours editing OSM data with the Java- based JOSM application, and since I started running the application by setting "XMODIFIERS=" for iBus I have no longer experienced any problem with text entry: neither failure to get any input text, nor the inability to enter special characters for Spanish.
So that _may_ look like a valid workaround, however, it's just based on my own experience for a limited time, and your mileage may vary. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/481656 Title: iBus blocks input in Java application To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ibus/+bug/481656/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
