Public bug reported:

In both ubuntu and xubuntu, natty and oneiric (haven't tried kubuntu,
though I imagine it works there, at least!) ibus input is broken for qt
apps - I can use ctrl-space to type in Japanese, but can't use the
compose key to enter accented letters.

I did some poking around, and found that GTK_IM_MODULE=ibus, but
QT_IM_MODULE=xim - clearing that variable with 'QT_IM_MODULE= qt_app'
fixes the problem.

Then I looked to see where it's being set to XIM, and it looks like the problem 
is in /etc/X11/xinput.d/ibus, line 12. It's looking for  
/usr/lib/qt4/plugins/inputmethods/libqtim-ibus.so, but the file is actually at 
/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/qt4/plugins/inputmethods/libqtim-ibus.so. When I 
corrected the path in this file, the environment variable was correctly set to 
ibus instead of xim.
