Bug ID: 2272902
Summary: ibus-pinyin preferences window fails to open
Product: Fedora
Version: 39
OS: Linux
Status: NEW
Component: ibus-pinyin
Keywords: Desktop
Severity: medium
Assignee: pwu(a)redhat.com
Reporter: dlunn(a)duck.com
QA Contact: extras-qa(a)fedoraproject.org
CC: i18n-bugs(a)lists.fedoraproject.org, pwu(a)redhat.com,
shawn.p.huang(a)gmail.com, tfujiwar(a)redhat.com
Target Milestone: ---
Classification: Fedora
By running ibus-setup from a terminal, I am able to diagnose the origin of this
issue with this output:
```Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/ibus-pinyin/setup/main.py", line 31, in <module>
from xdg import BaseDirectory
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'xdg'
```
The module 'xdg' has been deprecated in favour of 'xdg-base-dirs'. It
would be
possible to rewrite the code to use 'xdg-base-dirs', however upstream has
simply removed that line of code in this
[
commit](https://github.com/ibus/ibus-pinyin/commit/616770084991de0f36bea7...
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open "Preferences" for ibus-pinyin from the keyboard layout switcher in
GNOME top bar
Actual Results:
Nothing happens.
Expected Results:
The preferences window for ibus-pinyin should open.
I notice that Debian considers ibus-pinyin deprecated. I’d like some
clarification if possible on Fedora’s stance on continuing to maintain the
ibus-pinyin package, as the aforementioned commit didn't seem to find its way
into the Fedora package, either when it was committed or in the 6 years since
then.
