Public bug reported: I am running Kubuntu Saucy and I have installed ibus with a few input methods. However, I was unable to run ibus-setup either from the tray icon or a terminal.
While trying to run ibus-setup from the terminal I was getting the error: $ ibus-setup ERROR:root:Could not find any typelib for Gtk Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/ibus/setup/main.py", line 29, in <module> from gi.repository import Gtk ImportError: cannot import name Gtk By googling I got the link http://askubuntu.com/questions/48663 /software-sources-requires-gtk-2-and-wont-run-on-11-04 which is somewhat related and based on a suggestion in that page I did $ sudo apt-get install gir1.2-gtk-2.0 after which I have tried ibus-setup to get the ibus-setup window but with a warning: $ ibus-setup /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gi/overrides/Gtk.py:49: RuntimeWarning: You have imported the Gtk 2.0 module. Because Gtk 2.0 was not designed for use with introspection some of the interfaces and API will fail. As such this is not supported by the pygobject development team and we encourage you to port your app to Gtk 3 or greater. PyGTK is the recomended python module to use with Gtk 2.0 warnings.warn(warn_msg, RuntimeWarning) Since it is not possible to use ibus without enabling any of the input methods using the setup window, this should be considered a high priority bug for ibus. Please fix this. Thank you. ** Affects: ibus (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1246415 Title: ibus should depend on gir1.2-gtk-2.0 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ibus/+bug/1246415/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
