Reviving an old old thread. Apparently, Fedora is switching to ibus as
the default input method for F11
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/IBus --

Whether we like it or not, SCIM is not maintained upstream anymore, so
everyone is looking at ibus as the main candidate to replace it.

cheers,

This is a F11 feature https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/I18N/Meetings
should have more details.

There's no such Debian release.  I presume you mean Ubuntu Hardy.

 I compiled and installed Ibus, ibus-pinyin and
 Ibus-tables (apparently) but I'm having trouble with the others. I
 can't make the ibus-Hangul engine, and I can't make install
 ibus-chewing. Ibus doesn't run. Some error communication:

 hangul_wrap.c:118:20: error: Python.h: No such file or directory
 etc.

 Where is Python.h supposed to come from?

Automatic help mode:

http://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Apackages.ubuntu.com+python.h 
indicates it is available in the python2.5-dev package.

Human help mode:

Install the package called python-dev.  You can use apt-file to search the 
repository for files; see 
http://www.debuntu.org/how-to-find-missing-packages-with-apt-file.

Looks like you probably need to apt-get install python-dbus.  That's just 
a guess, though.

ibus, a new input framework

2008-08-27 Thread Sayamindu Dasgupta
Hi,
I just came across ibus, an input framework which seems to be designed
to be a better replacement for scim. A presentation is available
online at http://ibus-user.googlegroups.com/web/ibus.pdf
Has anyone used this ? Any comments on how well this works and how
stable this is ?
Thanks,
Sayamindu
