    Description

      With Ubuntu 24.04 and Ubuntu 22.04. The Qt
      QGuiApplication::inputMethod()->locale()
      returns the ibus input locale the same you get with

      ibus engine

      This does however not follow the setting you do via the Ubuntu desktop environment which mainly goes to

      /org/gnome/desktop/input-sources/current

      So we have the situation that for instance the German "ö" is displayed correctly in text based editors, but it is broken for short cuts, because the US keyboard is assumed like reported by ibus.

      QGuiApplication::inputMethod()->locale() reports the keyboard layout that is used in edit boxes.
