[opensuse-m17n] IBus's default preload engines are fixed
Hi, I fixed problem that IBus's default preload engines does not work. (maybe from 1.4?) https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=746612 Because of this problem, we had to open ibus-settings and add engines into the preload engines list before using IBus. Now, when the preload engine list is empty, for example, at the first boot, the engine with the largest rank is selected for each language. If Anthy (rank: 99) and Mozc (rank: 80) are installed then, in Japanese environment, both of engines are preloaded and Anthy is selected as a default engine. Note that engines whose rank are 0 are not preloaded. So, I would ask maintainers of engines to confirm each engine has an appropriate rank value. It can be found in "/usr/share/ibus/component/*.xml". Do we need to distribute this fix via the online update?

A good question. For the new installation system, it'd be a really good improvement. OTOH, if this would change suddenly the setup of the already "working" system, one would regard it as a regression. I guess CJK users should have already selected the list, so there will be no impact by this update. But what about users of systems with some ibus engines but in other locales? thanks, Takashi -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-m17n+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-m17n+owner@opensuse.org

Nothing happens. For example, even if Anthy is installed in a system with en_US locale, it is not added to the preload engine list because en_US does not match ja, which Anthy supports. A language supported by an engine is declared also in a XML file. If there was any engines support languages such as en_US, it would be problem.

Hm, didn't check yet but what about the engines with m17n-lib? Though, in that case, I don't think it's too bad to activate automatically. Takashi

Here is a source code of ibus-m17n: https://github.com/phuang/ibus-m17n/blob/master/src/default.xml.in.in ibus-m17n is preloaded in the following languages: as, gu, hi, kn, ks, mai, ml, mr, ne, or, pa, sa, sd, si, ta, te I don't know about these languages but ibus-m17n may be the only input method for these language. Of course, we can set rank values 0 to avoid preloading ibus-m17n. Fuminobu TAKEYAMA (2012/02/17 2:48), Takashi Iwai wrote:
