             Bug #: 44300
           Summary: : ibus not working without LANG
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: LibO 3.4.4 release
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
 Status Whiteboard: BSA
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Libreoffice
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]


Problem description: ibus cannot be enabled on Libreoffice Writer unless the
env.var. LANG is set for Writer.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Launch Writer.
2. Try to enable ibus by pressing the hotkey of iubs.
3. ibus is not enabled.

Current behavior: If Writer is launched like

  $ LANG=ja_JP.UTF-8 lowriter

ibus works.  Without LANG, ibus doesn't work.

Expected behavior: In the cooperation with ibus and other IMEs, Libreoffice
shouldn't depend on LANG.  ibus and other IMEs use a plugin architecture so
that the user can switch input languages on the fly. For example, you can type
Chinese, Vietnamese, Korean, etc. at the same text cursor without restarting
ibus.  Then, what LANG should we use for Libreoffice?  No, that's not how
Libreoffice should work. In fact, other applications (Firefox, emacs,
gnome-terminal, etc.) work with ibus and other IMEs without the env.var. LANG.

Platform (if different from the browser): 

Browser: Opera/9.80 (X11; Linux i686; U; en) Presto/2.10.229 Version/11.60
