[Bug 1311990] Re: Switching keyboard layouts from some non-English to Japanese (Anthy, Mozc) does not work on 14.04

 

This is still a bug, since it's not the expected behavior. Anthy
shouldn't use the previously selected layout.

Title:
  Switching keyboard layouts from some non-English to Japanese (Anthy,
  Mozc) does not work on 14.04

Status in ibus package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I'm using Ubuntu 14.04 LTS with multiple keyboard layouts: English
  (US) – Thai – Japanese (Anthy, Mozc), as appeared in Text Entry
  settings.

  The problem is that … when I cycle through the layouts in this order
  [EN → TH → JP], I would have expected to be able to type Japanese
  properly; however, although the indicator on the top right says JP,
  the output was still in TH.

  However, if I cycle in the reverse order [TH → EN → JP], the Japanese
  input works correctly.

  In more details, whenever I switch to JP from TH (by switching to
  "next" input if TH precedes JP in the settings, or by switching to
  "previous" input if TH succeeds JP in the settings), the output is in
  TH instead of JP (but the indicator is already in JP). On the other
  hand, switching to JP from EN works fine.

  Here's what the output from apt-cache policy ibus:

  ibus:
    Installed: 1.5.5-1ubuntu3
    Candidate: 1.5.5-1ubuntu3
