How can you tell that im-config shouldn't start IBus? So you are Greek,
and I'm Swedish, but AFAICT there is no way for im-config to know
whether you or I want to be able to type Japanese or Hebrew. It's
reasonable to expect that alternative desktop environments, which claim
to work on Ubuntu, are compatible with IM frameworks such as IBus,
fcitx, etc.

Did im-switch work differently in this respect? To be honest, I don't
remember. I suspect that it was not the change from im-switch to im-
config which caused this problem, but rather the integration of keyboard
layouts and more complex input methods.

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

Status in gnome-flashback package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in ibus package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in im-config package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in unity-settings-daemon package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

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']
