[Bug 1125944] Re: (gedit:3366): IBUS-WARNING **: The owner of ~/.config/ibus/bus is not root!

 

** Description changed:

+ This is "Won't Fix" because it is the symptom of a user error.
+ 
+ As indicated repeatedly in the comments below, you should not use "sudo
+ gedit" (or if you do, you should be able to live with this error
+ message).
+ 
+ The proper way to run a GUI tool with elevated privileges is with sudo
+ -i or gksudo.
+ 
+ Original problem description follows.
