[Bug 1481025] Re: Keyboard shortcut for layout switching works in Unity but not in Gnome-Flashback

 

Ok, I wrote a patch. Please feel free to sponsor it, Aron. ;)

Given the new locale dependent configuration for the CJKV languages, I
chose to use "xim" instead of "cjkv" in the patch. This way the
variables don't end up empty.

I have also committed the corresponding changes to language-selector.

Title:
  Keyboard shortcut for layout switching works in Unity but not in
  Gnome-Flashback

Status in im-config package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress
Status in language-selector package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  My keyboard layout is "us,gr", and the new Gnome way to switch between them is by pressing "Super+Space".
  This works fine in:
   * Gnome-Flashback (Metacity) 14.04
   * Unity 14.04
   * Unity 15.10

  It doesn't work in:
   * Gnome-Flashback (Metacity) 15.10

  I've tested with the 15.10 default (Unity) installation, selecting
  Greek language in ubiquity, and adding gnome-flashback after the
  installation.

  Just for reference, here are my related gsettings:
  $ gsettings list-recursively org.gnome.desktop.input-sources
  org.gnome.desktop.input-sources show-all-sources false
  org.gnome.desktop.input-sources per-window false
  org.gnome.desktop.input-sources current uint32 1
  org.gnome.desktop.input-sources sources [('xkb', 'us'), ('xkb', 'gr')]
  org.gnome.desktop.input-sources xkb-options ['grp:alt_shift_toggle', 'grp_led:scroll']
