Is your issue REALLY a bug?

  • [x] My issue is indeed a bug!
  • [x] I am not crazy! I will not fill out this form just to ask a question or request a feature. Pinky promise.

Is there an existing issue for this?

  • [x] I have searched the existing issues.

Is this issue related to iced?

  • [x] My hardware is compatible and my graphics drivers are up-to-date.

What happened?

  • Distro: Debian 12 Bookworm
  • Desktop Environment: KDE
  • Input Method: fcitx5 + mozc
  • iced version: tip of master
  • Application: TODOs, iced example app

When I type in a text_input box (on the todos example) with Mozc Hiragana enabled I get no input box.

What is the expected behavior?

When I type in a text_input box (on the todos example) with Mozc Hiragana enabled I expect a box to appear that fills in with what hiragana I want to choose.

Version

master

Operating System

Linux

Do you have any log output?

It works for me at least with following combination.

  • Distro:
    • Fedora 42
  • Desktop Environment:
    • COSMIC
    • GNOME
    • KDE Plasma
  • Input Method:
    • fcitx5 + mozc
  • iced version:
    • 89f480bdae951a31944302777b759661ec3c3e83
  • Application:
    • TODOs, iced example app

Hmm... I have an older distribution and I'm using KDE instead of COSMIC... I'm kind of guessing it is the old distribution that is causing the issue. I'll find out when Debian switches to it's next version.

I additionally tested with GNOME, KDE Plasma desktops. It worked for me.

I have never tested this with X11 (non-wayland) setup. I'll test that later.

I confirmed the problem with the following environments. Both X11 and wayland session didn't work. It seems some components are too old, but I haven't looked into it yet.

  • Distro:
    • Debian 12 Bookworm
  • Desktop Environment:
    • KDE Plasma(Wayland)
    • KDE Plasma(X11)
  • Input Method:
    • fcitx5 + mozc
  • iced version:
    • 89f480bdae951a31944302777b759661ec3c3e83
  • Application:
    • TODOs, iced example app

Debian 13 Trixie has been released and IME works on that platform (with updated package kde-full), but I think bookworm is still supported:

End of life: 2026-06-10 End of LTS: 2028-06-30 End of ELTS: 2033-06-30

I doubt this is going to get fixed and with it working on the stable release of Debian I think I'll close this.
