Please also see my ubuntu-bug report for gedit here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gedit/+bug/1189095
Issue occured for me in very specific circumstances: attempt to run two sudo gedit commands running simultaneously. The second failed with the error: (gedit:3214): IBUS-WARNING **: The owner of /home/username/.config/ibus/bus is not root! It failed in the sense that gedit did not open. It may have been significant that a related command was already running in another terminal (xfce4-terminal 0.6.1) window: sudo iptables -L > iptables_rules_.txt This comand takes a while to chug through its output. So gedit, or whatver, was already occupied. While that was happening, I had issued another sudo gedit command in another terminal window: sudo gedit /etc/firewall.bash It was that comand reported the above-quoted error. The failed sudo gedit command was resissued after the first had finished. Gedit opened the (new) file this time. It appeared, in other words, to have worked. It nevertheless repeated the error: "(gedit:3301): IBUS-WARNING **: The owner of /home/username/.config/ibus/bus is not root!". The file meanwhile, was edited and saved without a problem.
