    Target Release: ---


ibus-1.1.0.20090423-1.fc11

Currently ibus-daemon can fail to startup under certain circumstances like
socket directory owned by another user.  It currently fails silently, so the
user has no idea why it failed.

ibus-daemon should pop-up and tell the user it failed to start, and why.

ibus-daemon should probably run:
ibus-x11 --fail "fail message here"
