[Pkg-ime-devel] Bug#630331: ibus-chewing has annoying pop-up when enabling IME, causing focus to change

[Perry Thompson]

Package: ibus-chewing
Version: 1.3.9.2-2
Severity: important

This was not a problem on Debian 6.0.1 Squeeze, but now that I'm using
Wheezy, it is. It also affected Ubuntu, and may still affect.

When I focus on a window and wish to type in Chinese, I press ctrl+space
to enable ibus. It starts ibus-chewing, and for a very brief moment
shows a window, which I believe to be the properies window for ibus or
ibus-chewing. It goes away a split-second later, but often will cause
the focus on my window to leave. When pressing ctrl+space after that it
will not do it for the same window. However, if I move to another
window it will do it the first time I switch ibus on.

This is very tedious and causes problems when I type in Chinese. Thank
you.
