[Bug 1350812] [NEW] Gimp doesn't accept keyboard text entry

 

Public bug reported:

Release: Ubuntu 14.04 fully updated
Package: gimp (or possibly a sub-package) and / or ibus
Steps to reproduce:
1. Start working in Gimp, generally for a few minutes before the bug appears
2. Save file or export
3. Be unable to name the file in the Save File dialog

Workaround: kill ibus-daemon

This bug appears to be related to a Chrome / Chromium bug here:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chromium-browser/+bug/1307648
because  the workaround is the same and the two programs are mentioned in the same bug report here:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chromium-browser/+bug/1307648

This really makes Gimp almost impossible to use. I think an SRU is
requested for the (probably) related Chromium problem.

** Affects: gimp (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New
