Bug#769489: caribou: idling in the background and wasting memory

[Martin-Éric Racine]

Package: caribou
Version: 0.4.15-1
Severity: normal

Caribou seems to be launched by default in GNOME session and it eats a few percentage of CPU power for no reason, since I don't need any on-screen keyboard or other assistive input. Is there any way to disable this on a per-user case?
