[Bug 2112270] [NEW] Ibus engine does not follow gnome imput-source

 

Public bug reported:

With Ubuntu 24.04 and Ubuntu 22.04. The Qt
QGuiApplication::inputMethod()->locale()
returns the ibus input locale The same you get with 

ibus engine

This does however not follow the setting you do via the Ubuntu desktop
environment which mainly goes to

/org/gnome/desktop/input-sources/current

So we have the situation that for instance the German "ö" is displayed
correctly in text based editors, but it is broken for short cuts,
because the US keyboard is assumed like reported by ibus.

https://github.com/mixxxdj/mixxx/issues/14838

This issue does not happen in a Cinamon environment. Here ibus seems to
be used in the first place and

org/gnome/desktop/input-sources/sources is empty.

My expectation is that the ibus engine follows the gnome settings.
