Patch for app-i18n/ibus-chewing-1.3.10 to fix the problem.
Problem and possible cause:
The internal configuration of app-i18n/ibus-chewing-1.3.10 are not saved
successfully.
This problem starts from app-i18n/ibus-1.4.0, where IBus changed their
configuration value type from GValue to GVariant.
ibus-chewing adapts the change by writing functions to convert between GValue
and GVariant. But it seems that the GValue-GVariant conversion function dealt
with some types incorrectly, which caused g_value_get_uint() type checking
failure.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Install =app-i18n/ibus-1.4.0.
2. Install =app-i18n/ibus-chewing-1.3.10.
3. Start IBus normally, switch to ibus-chewing input method.
4. On ibus-chewing language panel, click configure button (the second button
from right). Or if you have language panel embedded in menu, left-click on the
IBus icon and choose the third item (Chinese: 設定).
5. Adjust the 5th setting (a spinbox with range 8-40, Chinese: 容納中文字數).
6. Click save (button at right-bottom corner, Chinese: 儲存).
7. Start another application, then repeat step 3 and 4. You'll find that the
setting has gone back to 8, not the value configured in step 5.
All three fields with a spinbox are affected.
Actual result:
The saved configuration does not persist and keeps going back to a certain
value.
Here's the output found when debugging with ibus-daemon --verbose:
(ibus-engine-chewing:4097): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_value_get_uint:
assertion `G_VALUE_HOLDS_UINT (value)' failed
(ibus-engine-chewing:4097): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_value_get_uint:
assertion `G_VALUE_HOLDS_UINT (value)' failed
(ibus-engine-chewing:4097): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_value_get_uint:
assertion `G_VALUE_HOLDS_UINT (value)' failed
Expected result:
The saved configure should persist.
How often:
Always reproducible.
Fix:
I've attached a patch for app-i18n/ibus-chewing-1.3.10 to fix the problem. I'm
still testing if this patch affects other parts of ibus-chewing, but it works
so far.
When I have spare time, I'll try to report this and bug 407695 to ibus-
chewing developers.
PS. I have added a patch in bug 407695. I'm just making sure that somebody
sees the new patch. If it's enough to just move /gconf into /etc by adding mv
commands in ebuild, then it's okay.
