I have recently noticed having upgraded glade (to 3.18.3), that the function
discard_preedit (modules/input/imquartz.c:237) causes a segmentation fault when
the user clicks on a GtkEntry.
I’m not sure why this occurs but, when I copy lade outside of ~/gtk/inst/bin
(jhbuild installs all my gtk+ binaries there) and run the copied executable
through a jhbuild shell or jhbuild run ./glade, the problem goes away fine. If
I rename ~/gtk/inst/lib/gtk-3.0/3.0.0/immodules/im-quartz.so to something else,
then I get runtime warnings in the console about not being able to load
I’m-quartz.so, but the problem is gone. I notice no different functionality
with the GtkEntry in these cases as to text boxes in OS X apps, so is it safe
just to comment out the function implementation of “discard_preedit”. The
problem was also not present in glade 3.16.1, but its probably a change in the
glade source forcing the use im-quartz, which could be broken.
I think this is also mentioned here (https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/GTK+/OSX)
under “input methods” as: “Bridged to native input methods with imquartz, but
it breaks all text entry on Leopard.”.
I’m not sure if this is due to a change that apple made in 10.11 El Capitan,
but any advice would be appreciated.
