Bug#1014052: ibus:After rebooted, I must do `ibus-daemon -rxd` change japanese to anthy with kanji key.

[Osamu Aoki <osamu@debian.org>]

Hi,

I had similar experience of loosing Japanese input upon system updates.

This happened only after system updates without rebooting.

I never investigated the packages involved in this problem.

Rebooing the system always fixed this problem for me based on my vague memory.

I don't recall this happened before moving to Wayland.

As you know, recent Debian system restarts some processes run under systemd upon
system updates. Maybe some ibus or ibus-anthy or even xwayland related process may
need to be included in the set of programs to be restarted to avoid rebooting the
system.  This is my speculation of this situation.

If this is related to restarting xwayland startup scripts, Ubuntu bug mentioned by
Gunnar may be related.

Regards,

Osamu
