Bug#736342: gnome-terminal: regularly stops using X input method

[Tollef Fog Heen]

Package: gnome-terminal
Version: 3.10.1-1
Severity: normal

I have GTK_IM_MODULE=xim set in my environment to ensure that keys like
compose and such work correctly.  Ever so often, gnome-terminal forgets
this and falls back to the simple input method.  I'm not sure what
causes this.

Earlier, right-clicking in the window would let me switch back to the
input method I wanted, but that option was recently removed.

Can either the bug where it switches be fixed or the removal of the
input method menu be reverted, please?  I'm happy to assist with
debugging.
