New issue 1186 by [email protected]: ibus-1.3.99: ibus-ui-gtk dies very
often
http://code.google.com/p/ibus/issues/detail?id=1186
After the recent signal-sender patch
(https://github.com/ibus/ibus/commit/d5bdf851d25b07062ecb2ea932b91317b1d9e72a),
it seems that the Gtk+ panel component for IBus became unstable. I'm not
sure whether the patch is doing something wrong, or the patch just revealed
an existing bug in ibus-daemon (probably the latter?), but anyway after the
patch ibus-daemon occasionally terminates a GDBus connection between the
daemon and ibus-ui-gtk unexpectedly, and as a result, the UI component
process suddenly quits.
There seems to be several ways to reproduce the problem, but the easiest
way I found so far would be as follows:
-------------------------------------
1. build tot ibus (master branch), then install it
2. start ibus-daemon without any command line options
3. start ibus-setup. remove all engines except pinyin. check the "Share the
same input method among all applications." checkbox
4. quit ibus-setup, then quit ibus-daemon
5. start ibus-daemon with --panel=disable
6. start /usr/lib/ibus/ibus-ui-gtk
7. *before pressing any hot-keys of ibus*, run the
attached 'ibus_ui_gtk_crash_reduction' command. (you can compile it
with 'g++ `pkg-config --libs --cflags ibus-1.0`
ibus_ui_gtk_crash_reduction.c -o ibus_ui_gtk_crash_reduction')
expected:
/usr/lib/ibus/ibus-ui-gtk does not quit.
actual:
the process quits.
-------------------------------------
Reverting the patch for ibusimpl.c
(http://codereview.appspot.com/3775042/diff/3001/bus/ibusimpl.c) seems to
fix the problem. i.e. the patches against dbusimpl.c and inputcontext.c
would be fine.
