no any cyrillic input with chromium (default input method works as expected) about exim HOT 11 CLOSED

last week it works

from exim.

Are the environment variables correctly set? With .xprofile I can't seems to make it work. Instead I have to put them into .xinitrc (it might be distribution-dependent though). You can check them by executing echo $GTK_IM_MODULE in a terminal. The result should be xim.

PS. I tried cyrillic-translit and it seems working.

"no input", i.e. currently focused input field ignores all typed characters, when set-input-method turned on. System wide (xorg) language switcher works, and now I use it... but I want to fix EXIM method in GTK/qt apps!
It works os in xterm... hm... Maybe GTK2/3 configs issue?

set-input-method - EXIM works with xterm, but not rxvt!

Would you mind providing the output of export | grep 'XMODIFIERS\|_IM_' and locale?

from exim.

here:

[az@thinky:~]$ export | grep 'XMODIFIERS\|_IM_'
declare -x CLUTTER_IM_MODULE="xim"
declare -x GTK_IM_MODULE="xim"
declare -x QT_IM_MODULE="xim"
declare -x XMODIFIERS="@im=exim"

[az@thinky:~]$ locale

full system upgrade (nixos) fix this bug for me!

from exim.

Which components were upgraded? I wonder if it's really the case as basically we just exploit some ancient protocols here.

from exim.

Since the issue seems fixed, I'm closing it now.
