    Description

      In qibusplatforminputcontext.cpp:575, the path for the iBus socket file is crafted as $HOME/.config/ibus/bus/....

      However, this assumes that $XDG_CONFIG_HOME is always set to $HOME/.config. Foreign language input with iBus stops working in Qt5 applications when $XDG_CONFIG_HOME is set to something else.

      The proposed solution would be to return $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/ibus/bus/....
