REGRESSION: predictive text input fails
DESCRIPTION:
When typing on the keyboard no “word suggestion” is provided. The clipboard icon appears, the rest of the line is empty.
PRECONDITIONS:
During upgrade I was recommended to remove a few packages related to predictive text input (not sure of their exact names). I uninstalled them using pkcon remove
. The upgrade went well but after reboot I had lost predictive text input.
After refreshing the package list (pkcon refresh
) I tried to install it Jolla store but it simply says “waiting” to end up with an error.
Predictive text input worked well before upgrade.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
- system upgrade to 4.5.0.16 (upgrade to 18 did not fix or change anything)
EXPECTED RESULT:
Working predictive text input, ie word suggestion as you type or Chinese characters displayed as Pinyin is input.
ACTUAL RESULT:
empty row at the top of the keyboard (only the clipboard icon shows up)
MODIFICATIONS:
No change applied, simply followed to recommendation to uninstall xt9 related packages.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:

- enable/disable different languages
- uninstall/reinstall

package - restart
maliit-server
- reboot
