Well, I tested the attached patch, but it didn't make a difference - those two variables are still set to "ibus". What else can it be?
OTOH I could successfully type Mozc in gedit using fcitx. Can it be because the GTK_IM_MODULE variable was set to fcitx (by im-config) without being overridden by something else? In any case, there seems to be more into it to make Ubuntu GNOME safely ready for users who prefer other IM frameworks but ibus. ** Patch added: "gnome-session_no-ibus-vars.patch" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-session/+bug/1594681/+attachment/4687934/+files/gnome-session_no-ibus-vars.patch ** Tags added: patch -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-session in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1594681 Title: Don't set ibus variables from gnome-session Status in Ubuntu GNOME: New Status in gnome-session package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Currently these variable settings are hardcoded in gnome-session: QT_IM_MODULE=ibus XMODIFIERS=@im=ibus That way the use of alternative IM frameworks, for instance fcitx, is prevented. gnome-session should drop those variable assignments, and rely on im-config instead.
