I found the problem about blocked the toggle of IM only in openSUSE 12.3
(M2 and beta) after force enabled ibus-gjs 3.4.1. I don't know whether
you enabled ibus-gjs too. If This is the reason about this problem , we
can ignore it, end users should not install ibus-gjs 3.4.1 from
M17N:Devel, and it seems that openSUSE don't supply technical support
for third party repertories , especially test repertories. ibus-gjs also
will not included in openSUSE 12.3 , it only word in GNOME 3.4.x.

Ibus-anthy and ibus-m17n always work fine with ibus 1.5 in my three PCs
(openSUSE 12.2) and a VirtualBox system (opensuse 12.3). I can't
reappear the problem about ibus-anthy and ibus-m17n which you mentioned.

Can you tell me steps you how to reappear these problems which you
mentioned ? I think you should test at other system , at least 12.3.

To Huang Peng , Takao Fujiwara and Ma Xiaojun: Can you give us some
help ?

At the more that half a year, I have tested the upgrade paths (oss to
M17N:Devel and M17N to M17N:Devel) at 12.2&12.3(M1,M2 and Beta) On
GNOME, KDE and Mate, I didn't find any serious problem, only some minor
bugs. Some of them have been fixed. If you really think there are some
serious problems, can you please report them to upstream: Huang Peng ,
Takao Fujiwara and Ma Xiaojun ?
