[Fedora-i18n-bugs] [Bug 1938251] New: update_preedit_text_with_mode(..., .., ..., IBus.PreeditFocusMode.COMMIT) doesn’t work in Gnome Wayland (works fine in Gnome Xorg)

Bug ID: 1938251
           Summary: update_preedit_text_with_mode(..., .., ...,
                    IBus.PreeditFocusMode.COMMIT) doesn’t  work in Gnome
                    Wayland (works fine in Gnome Xorg)
           Product: Fedora
           Version: 34
            Status: NEW
         Component: ibus
          Assignee: [e-mail]

  Target Milestone: ---
    Classification: Fedora

I installed Fedora-Workstation-Live-x86_64-34-20210308.n.0.iso into qemu.

Add the ibus-typing-booster input method in the Gnome control center and
also add the “Vietnamese (telex (m17n))” input method from ibus-m17n.

Both input methods use

update_preedit_text_with_mode(..., .., ..., IBus.PreeditFocusMode.COMMIT)

and this problem can be reproduced with either of them.

Open a gedit and a gnome-terminal.

Select ibus-typing-booster in the Gnome panel and type “test”.
The word “test” is underlined, indicating that it is in preedit and not yet
committed to gedit.

Now click on gnome-terminal to change the focus to gnome-terminal.

The string “test” vanishes from gedit. It should *not* vanish, it should
be committed i.e. the underline under “test” should vanish and the string
“test” should be in gedit.

Same problem with the Vietnamese (telex (m17n)) input method.

Select it in the Gnome panel.

Type “a” into gedit.  The “a” is underlined because it is in preedit.
Click on gnome-terminal to change the focus to gnome-terminal.
The “a” vanishes. Here as well the “a” should be commited to gedit, i.e.
the underline should disappear and the “a” should remain in gedit.

Sorry, this is not a regression but a known issue.
ibus_update_preedit_text_with_mode() has not been implemented in GNOME Wayland
yet.
pwu has the patch of the API and I have another patch over his one.

Seems this is not fixed in Fedora 36.

This message is a reminder that Fedora Linux 36 is nearing its end of life.
Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora Linux 36 on
2023-05-16.
It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer
maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with
a
'version' of '36'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora Linux version. Note that the version field may be hidden.
Click the "Show advanced fields" button if you do not see it.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora Linux 36 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora Linux, you are encouraged to change the 'version' to a later version
prior to this bug being closed.

I think currently the preedit is committed in the current context but not the
next context with the focus change.
ibus_update_preedit_text_with_mode() is not implemented yet but the behavior
seems to be preferred by ibus-typing-booster.

Fedora Linux 36 entered end-of-life (EOL) status on 2023-05-16.

field may be hidden. Click the "Show advanced fields" button if you do not see
the version field.

If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against an
active release.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
