Comment 33 for bug 1720250

Ok, the reason I left a comment here was very logical: disabling the code in /etc/profile.d/input-method-config.sh script made the problem "go away". And in the header of this script there is a reference to this particular bug number, so that was my first place to go to.

However, I completely agree with you, that the real cause of the problem may be elsewhere and it should be reported against the corresponding subsystem. I will do as you suggest as soon as I have more information (I am not working on this actively, as my "workaround" seems to be ok, but of course I am curious and so "in the back of my mind" I am still considering this issue :)
