I asked here a few days ago about ibus which broke after I did a yum update.

No one responded but I saw some other posts about different problems with ibus so I waited until some new updates appeared.

However after upgrading again just now, it is still broken -- still no input editor appears when I type the enable sequence. However now the (new) ibus icon says "no input window" when left-clicked.

Is ibus ever going to work?  I write non-
english emails everyday and Fedora is useless to me without a working ibus. At this point I wonder if I should blow off Fedora and and just return to Windows?


I can confirm that it has worked for me as of today on X86_64

I did it last night on my i386 laptop by doing the following (found
online).

yum downgrade ibus-libs
yum update

Hope this helps

I believe that Stuart's problem is that once you break ibus it will never dig its way out using only the 'upgrade' command, since something appears half-updated. I did successful upgrades on a number of system after the problem, but on the two systems which had an initial problem a simple upgrade fails. I will try downgrading and see if that helps. One system will not do networking since the upgrade failed, so I'm not sure what's up with that, it just broken.
