The new ibus stack and indicator-keyboard are ready for testing in ppa:ubuntu-desktop/ppa. If you are using Unity, please manually install indicator-keyboard as we haven't set up the metapackages to depend on it yet. The new shortcut to switch keyboard layouts is Super+Space (this is now the default in ibus, GNOME 3.8 and Windows 8). At this time, Unity doesn't handle that keyboard shortcut properly ( http://pad.lv/1201679 ). As a workaround, you can use Shift+Super+Space to switch keyboard layouts backwards. We are considering having ibus-daemon autostart for everyone, probably using an upstart user session. This should help ensure that alternate input methods just work without needing to enable an option and log out first. http://pad.lv/1194138 Please let us know if the upgrade causes any new issues so we can deal with regressions before uploading to Saucy directly. It would help if someone could check the other desktop flavors (Kubuntu, Xubuntu, etc.) too.
