Package: ibus Version: 1.4.1-8 Severity: critical Tags: patch Justification: breaks unrelated software
As reported in: http://code.google.com/p/ibus/issues/detail?id=1445 ibus generates a pre-edit-changed signal on focus switch, with an empty preedit string. It appears the purpose of this is to clear preedit context when you switch windows. Unfortunately this can cause some bad bugs, which various projects have had to work around (e.g. OpenOffice), and even data loss -- see the Gnumeric bug here: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=663371 Andreas states in this bug that it needs to be fixed in ibus, not in apps that are broken by this behavior. This bug should affect Debian ibus.
