** Description changed:
- im-config jammy SRU
- ===================
-
[Impact]
Changes in gnome-settings-daemon v. 42 resulted in IM issues in GNOME on
Xorg. On Ubuntu the effect is that the candidate window is misplaced,
and appears at the bottom of the application window instead of close to
the cursor. It's an annoying enough issue to justify an SRU.
-
- Maybe a more proper fix (in gnome-settings-daemon) will happen later,
- but in the meantime we simply let im-config set the GTK_IM_MODULE
- environment variable to "ibus".
[Test Plan]
On an updated Ubuntu 22.04:
1. Install ibus-libpinyin
2. Run these commands:
sudo locale-gen zh_CN.UTF-8
sudo update-locale LC_CTYPE=zh_CN.UTF-8
3. Reboot and log in to an Ubuntu on Xorg session
4. Add "Intelligent Pinyin" to the input sources
5. Open gedit, switch to "Intelligent Pinyin", and input something.
=> Find that the candidate window is misplaced.
- 6. Install im-config from jammy-proposed and reboot
+ 6. Install gnome-settings-daemon{,-common} from jammy-proposed and
+ reboot
7. Repeat step 5.
=> Find that the candidate window is shown close to the cursor as
expected.
[Where problems could occur]
- Setting GTK_IM_MODULE=ibus is a normal measure for Xorg sessions, and
- shouldn't cause any adverse side effects. (Doing it for Wayland sessions
- would have caused issues, though, but we don't do that.)
+ The change is an upstream MR and a one-liner. It shouldn't reasonably
+ affect anything but ibus configuration, and I have successfully tested
+ it back and forth in both x11 and wayland sessions.
[Other Info]
- The same change will soon be synced from unstable into kinetic.
+ This change has not yet reached kinetic, but will do so later when g-s-d
+ is upgraded. The issue has temporarily been addressed in Debian (and
+ soon in kinetic via sync) through an im-config workaround, which will be
+ dropped later when g-s-d is updated. But for an SRU I think it's better
+ to make the more proper g-s-d change directly.
[Original description]
I know it is not im-config issue. I don't know what is root cause.
how to reproduce:
1. Install Ubuntu 22.04 LTS or apply newest update
2. boot
3. select a user
4. select Ubuntu on Xorg
5. input password
6. login
7. run gedit
8. push Hankaku/Zenkaku key
9. input any keys
10. lookup table appears bottom left of application
proposed fix:
edit DESKTOP_SETUP_IBUS="GNOME" to DESKTOP_SETUP_IBUS="" on
/etc/default/im-config
