fcitx5 stopped working

I read the other thread here, but for me the problem with fcitx5 are not resolved.

I just returned form a trip, updated the whole system (lots of bunch after 1 week), and now fctix5 is dead:

  • No reaction, despite having libx11 1.8.9 and everything up to date.

  • no way to switch input method in konsole

  • no way to switch input style for mozc in kate

  • switching to mozc as input method in kate only worked with mouse, not with Ctrl-Space

This is KDE/Plasma session on top of X11 with nvidia graphics card.

fcitx5-diagnose output:

Re: fcitx5 stopped working

Have you tried reverting to libx11 1.8.7 ?

no way to switch input method in konsole
no way to switch input style for mozc in kate

Is this limited to KDE/Qt6 clients? What about some Qt5/gtk3 window?

I don't know which program uses Qt5 still, but gedit (gtk) **does** work indeed.

Re: fcitx5 stopped working

https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/qt5-base/ - there's even a bunch of unporte KDE-adjacent clients in there.
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/qarma-git is as basic Qt5 as it can get (exposes a bunch of dialogs) and, as pointed out in the comments, can be compiled against Qt6 as well - in case it's more a KDE than Qt6 thing

Re: fcitx5 stopped working

I checked with `cantor` which is linked against Qt5, and also there neither Ctrl-Space nor manual selection works.

Re: fcitx5 stopped working

https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/fcitx5-qt/ was rebuild against Qt 6.7 2024-04-11
Downgrading to the previous version will probably break on Qt6 for sure, but does it return function to Qt5?

Re: fcitx5 stopped working

I tried to downgrade to 5.1.5-3 but that only created like billions of core dumps and kwin etc didn't run. Not possible to actually test.

Re: fcitx5 stopped working

You could try to only replace
/usr/lib/libFcitx5Qt5*
/usr/lib/qt/plugins/platforminputcontexts/libfcitx5platforminputcontextplugin.so and
/usr/bin/fcitx5-qt5-immodule-probing
w/ the old versions (or, since this is a Qt6.7 rebuild, check whether they're at all binary different using eg. md5sum)
