Hello all,

Let's restart to discuss toward 13.1.

We had postponed to update ibus to 1.5.0 for 12.3 because of several regressions or bugs.
# and other distributions such as Ubuntu also did.

However, I know some ibus engines require 1.5 and ibus is a part of GNOME.
So we cannot keep the old version.


Did anyone test ibus-1.5.2 in M17N:Devel?
https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?package=ibus&project=M17N%3ADevel

I am testing a copy of the package in my repo for several weeks.
It looks fine to me though some key binds are not available anymore.


What we have to do for ibus on M17N:Devel?

1. fix .changes file
We cannot change the history of a package which had been submitted to Factory.
We may have to revert it to that of M17N and put *a* new log entry containing:
- merge branch in M17N:Devel
- update to 1.5.2
 * changes in this version
- update to 1.5.1
 * changes in this version
- update to 1.5.0
 * changes in this version

We, especially hillwood, did trial and error for more than one year.
I think we can write some comments on this entry to record the trial and error.


2. add "Obsoletes ibus-gnome-shell"


Now I have time for update. Shall I update?
Does anyone want to do it?


Then, now we have SR from dimstar.
https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/180448
Thanks a lot!

It seems that important changes in M17N:Devel are missing in the SR, though.
I guess it does not work correctly.

It it a quick way to fix the package in M17N:Devel?
Any idea?


Best regards,
Fuminobu TAKEYAMA
