Details

My Japanese input with ibus/anthy has been completely broken for about two months now. When I trigger the IME switch with the hankaku/zenkaku keyboard key and type a few keys, no input window or characters/letters appear. Instead the system freezes for a few seconds after which the typed letters are displayed unaltered in their plain qwerty form.

Running the ibus daemon in verbose mode, gives this hint:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/site.py", line 73, in <module>
__boot()
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/site.py", line 48, in __boot
addsitedir(item)
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site.py", line 192, in addsitedir
addpackage(sitedir, name, known_paths)
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site.py", line 162, in addpackage
exec line
File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'setdefaultencoding'

But giving the seemingly nasty coding schemes in there I can't bring myself to go on a goose chase myself yet. ("exec line", "setdefaultencoding" ...seriously?)


BTW, any decent alternatives for anthy out there?
This task depends upon

Could you please test out one of these? I removed the python2 things because it looks like ibus-anthy supports python3 some what.

Just as a side note. I do not use ibus since I have no need for it, I simply maintain it because there wasn't anyone else maintaining it, so I rely on the community to report issues like this.

Thanks, I appreciate the swift effort. With that package (x86_64) I get a syntax error instead:

File "/usr/share/ibus-anthy/engine/main.py", line 84
except getopt.GetoptError, err:
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax


Might not be too hard to fix. I can test again tomorrow.

Looks like we will need to use python2 then.
Comment by Lazarus (Lazarus) - Thursday, 16 December 2010, 06:18 GMT
Yes, python3 is out, because regardless I fix that syntax error, the module 'ibus' is required, which does not exist in python3.

Also, the error in my opening post turns out to be unrelated (/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/eric4.pth of the 'eric' package has an illegal semicolon on the import line which needs to be replaced with a newline).


Here's how I get the real error(s):
Just in case, reinstall the ibus, anthy and ibus-anthy packages and 'rm -r .cache/ibus; rm -r .config/ibus; rm -r .gconf/desktop/ibus; rm -r .anthy' (which are all the related files I could find).

Then, run 'ibus-daemon -v' and in another terminal run 'ibus-setup'. The instant you add 'Anthy' in the 'Input Method' tab, the ibus-daemon barfs up this:

I've now reported this upstream too: http://code.google.com/p/ibus/issues/detail?id=1166

But seeing as how many open bugs ibus has (like every other oss Japanese IME out there), I'm not too hopeful this is going to be fixed anytime soon, unless I do it myself.

As I've reported upstream (http://code.google.com/p/ibus/issues/detail?id=1166) the problem is fixed for me. Something probably broke during an update, but after wiping all config files and later rebooting (or some other mysterious ingredient change I can't quite reproduce), everything works again...

So I guess this bug can be closed (unless you hear of more people with the same problem).
