By default, Bugzilla does not search the list of RESOLVED bugs.
You can force it to do so by putting the upper-case word ALL in front of your search query, e.g.: ALL tdelibs
We recommend searching for bugs this way, as you may discover that your bug has already been resolved and fixed in a later release.

Description wofgdkncxojef 2017-08-22 02:57:33 CDT

like the title sais.
ibus doesn't work. The applet it self seams to work fine, but no output is changed. ibus-qt4 and ibus-gtk are already installed.

I guess qt4 application integration is needed for this.

only GTK3 applications seam to work

Comment 2 wofgdkncxojef 2018-05-21 23:31:50 CDT

it works fine with these three changes

1.applications need this variable in their environment
export XMODIFIERS=@im=ibus
you can add it in ~/.bashrc
or in the terminal just before
launching the application

2. ibus in xim mode
ibus-daemon --xim -d

3.embed the preedit text, otherwise it appears at
the bottom left corner of the window.
in ibus applet
right click applet > preferences >
embed preedit text in application window

i'm adding this in the wiki
