Fix an issue with deprecated schema entries: sed -i 's@/desktop/ibus@/org/freedesktop/ibus@g' \ data/dconf/org.freedesktop.ibus.gschema.xml Fix a security issue and regression caused by GLib-2.62.3 and later: patch -Np1 -i ../ibus-&ibus-version;-upstream_fixes-1.patch Install ibus by running the following commands: ./configure --prefix=/usr \ --sysconfdir=/etc \ --disable-unicode-dict \ --disable-emoji-dict && rm -f tools/main.c && make To test the results, issue: make -k check. One test may fail for unknown reasons. Now, as the root user: make install && gzip -dfv /usr/share/man/man{{1,5}/ibus*.gz,5/00-upstream-settings.5.gz} Command Explanations --disable-emoji-dict: This switch disables the use of emoticon dictionaries. Omit if you installed the optional package. --disable-unicode-dict: This switch disables the use of unicode dictionaries. Omit if you installed the optional Unicode Character Database. rm -f tools/main.c: This command removes a generated file that was not removed when packaging. : This switch disables building the GTK+ 2 immodule. Use it if you have not installed GTK+ 2. : This switch enables building the Python support library. Use it if have installed the optional dependencies. : This switch enables building the Wayland support programs. Use it if you have installed the optional dependencies. : This switch makes the configure script look for Python 3. Use it if you want to build the Python 3 support library alongside the Python 2 one. gzip -dfv ...: Decompress installed man pages in accordance with other man pages.
