Hi Devs, I am recently testing Solus 4 Plasma Testing Edition, because i absolutely fall in love with KDE Plasma DE, super modern and lightweight, it work great on my machine, no problem after upgrade from 3.999 to 4.0. But one problem is known when typing Asian characters with Ibus or Fcitx in KDE/Qt app from using KDE Neon still happen in Solus Plasma, so i can't type Vietnamese in KDE/Qt app like Dolphin, Kwrite, Kate...but Firefox and Libre Office work fine. What can i do to type Vietnamese with Ibus engine (as i can't find a way to install Fcitx in Solus repo) in KDE/Qt app? because i really love the set of KDE default app. I read somewhere that is a package call "ibus-qt" need install to fix this bug, but i can't find a packafe like that in Solus repo. I need your help, please!

Of course yes, i actually use ibus-unikey package from official Solus repo. This problem make me a bit annoying and inconvenient because i can't use some KDE/qt app which require typing like Kate, Kwrite, Dolphin, Desktop Sticky Note... What can i do?

need to look into this more, but not much info around (what I can find) and ibus-qt is not supported since nearly 5 years

Closing this as stale. If this is still an issue, it should probably be reported via bugs.kde.org
