[Bug 1278569] Re: ibus breaks emacs and eclipse control-space keybinding

 

For MineCraft, there is problem in its keyboard handling code and no
input method is working with it, including other input fields within the
program cannot be working. It's a different issue that should be handled
by MineCraft.

Title:
  ibus breaks emacs and eclipse control-space keybinding

Status in “ibus” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Installing ibus 1.5.5-1ubuntu1 breaks Emacs 24's control-space
  keybinding.  I generally have that bound to a custom lisp function,
  but by default (e.g. starting with `emacs -Q`) it is bound to set-
  mark-command.  After doing a dist-upgrade in Trusty which installs
  ibus 1.5.5-1ubuntu1, emacs no longer even sees the control-space key
  chord.  My guess is that ibus is consuming this event, preventing
  emacs from seeing it.  This is a critical regression that makes emacs
  almost unusable.

  By process of elimination, I've narrowed it down to one of these 4
  binary packages.

  gir1.2-ibus-1.0
  ibus
  ibus-gtk
  ibus-gtk3
