https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1659748

Bug ID: 1659748
           Summary: Characters get deleted as you type
           Product: Fedora
           Version: 29
            Status: NEW
         Component: ibus-m17n
          Severity: high
          Assignee: [e-mail]
          Reporter: [e-mail]

  Target Milestone: ---
    Classification: Fedora

Description of problem:

When you type Sinhala using Wijesekera keyboard layout through ibus the first
character gets deleted as soon as you start typing the second character. This
is similar to the bug previously reported for Fedora 28
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1617978

How reproducible:

(1) Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Libre Office Writer (6.1.2.1)
2. Switch to Sinhala; Sinhalese (wijesekera (m17n))
3. Type keys vksIal kjSka
4. Hit space to separate the second word from the first word. And hit space at
the end of the first word.

Actual results: ක වීන්

Expected results: ඩනිෂ්ක නවීන්

Additional info: 
(2) When you try this with emacs the results are a little different. I am
including it here assuming this is related to the same issue:
This is how to reproduce with emacs:

1. Open emacs 26.1 (build 1, x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.23.2)
 of 2018-08-13
2. Switch to Sinhala; Sinhalese (wijesekera (m17n))
3. Type keys vksIal kjSka
4. Hit space to separate the second word from the first word. And hit space at
the end of the first word.

Actual results: ඩනිෂ් කනවී න්

Expected results: ඩනිෂ්ක නවීන්

This adds a space before the last character of the first word, not where you
want the space to be.
