Thanks. I can confirm your observations on eoan. IBus doesn't work with atom as snap on focal either.
The deb is not even installable on focal since the python package has been removed. Atom depends on python2, which is about to be dropped from the Ubuntu archive. Some kind of workaround may be available before the release of Ubuntu 20.04, though. So there are two issues: * The snap issue, which I would suggest that you report upstream: https://github.com/snapcrafters/atom/issues/ * The removal of python2 in Ubuntu - upstream really should port the software to python3. So Ubuntu does not seem to be very atom friendly at the moment. I don't think this is an IBus issue, but since I don't know a better package, I keep this bug open for now for info purposes. ** Changed in: ibus (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Confirmed ** Summary changed: - IBus 1.5.21 Chinese input in Ubuntu 19.10 not working with Atom 1.45.0 + IBus 1.5.21 Chinese input in Ubuntu 19.10 not working with Atom 1.45.0 as snap -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to ibus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1867090 Title: IBus 1.5.21 Chinese input in Ubuntu 19.10 not working with Atom 1.45.0 as snap Status in ibus package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: When I switch to Chinese input mode (Intelligent Pinyin) and try to type Chinese into Atom 1.45.0, it simply doesn't work.
