I've had ibus break, which tends to break everything. Kinda like killing
rpc on windoze, just nothing works then.
Would be worth using journalctl -f as root while launching things, to see
what the system is complaining about outside of just user space.
Have you tried a clean user profile? Ibus tends to be user dependent, I
seem to remember last time I had this happen (not in a long while), I had
to more or less recreate my .config directory in my homedir, but a quick
way to test is just to log in as another user, creating one if so.
If that doesn't work, I'd say the upgrade went bad, and perhaps try
installing the OS portions cleanly. This is why I tend to break down all
the important system directories as LVM's, such as /, /var, /varlog, /usr
(arch does NOT like this, deb doesn't care), and home. I replace
everything other than home normally, or just create new LV's to mount
against, remounting your old home when done.
HTH!
