           Summary: ibus overrides xkb layout options from gnome
           Product: Fedora

          Platform: Unspecified
        OS/Version: Unspecified
            Status: NEW

Description of problem:
I think this is problem is fixed in ibus-1.5pre (ie in F17)
but this problem exists for F16 at least I think (probably F15 too?).

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
ibus-1.4.1-1.fc16

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. start gnome desktop session with ibus running
2. change xkb layout options in gnome-control-center
   eg swap position of Ctrl and Caps, say or Alt and Super keys...
3. switch between applications

Actual results:
3. The xkb options no longer work after getting a new ibus context
   and the actual keyboard layout reverts to the original one in (1.)

Expected results:
3. ibus to preserve and respect the gnome xkb settings.

Additional info:
Maybe hard to fix in current 1.4?
Is it possible to backport the new xkb code from 1.5 say?
