Bug Description

Version 12.10
Ubuntu Gnome Remix 12.10

I am using ibus as the default input method. In the beginning, I thought my problem was related to Bug #1045914. But after trying that bug's fix, the problem still exists. Jeremy Bicha (jbicha) asked me to report a new bug since the bug #1045914 is already fixed.

What I did by following Bug #1045914's suggestion after fresh installation of ubuntu gnome remix 12.10:

 * Add GNOME3 PPA: ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3
 * run dist-upgrade
    Now, the "Details" page in "System Settigns" shows Ubuntu 13.04 instead of 12.10.
 * Add new keyboard layout in "System Settings" --> "Region & Language" --> "Layouts"

My current screenshot: http://www.pasteall.org/pic/show.php?id=44184
What I expected to see: http://www.pasteall.org/pic/show.php?id=44936

Btw:
{{{
$ lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 12.10
Release: 12.10
}}}

Thanks.

This is my first time to report a bug. Can anyone tell me why Bug #1045914 has 86 comments and nobody (no developers) review my bug? I just don't get it. Thanks a lot.

This bug has been reported many times, yet nothing has been done so far. I doubt anyone cares about it, it's all about Unity these days.

It seems to me that vanilla GNOME doesn't have this bug and it's purely Ubuntu's fault, i.e. bad patches.

True, in https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=695723#c10 , upstream said that this bug is caused by some patch by downstream.
