ibus-chewing at 100% cpu, freezes system after short while.

[compul]

Hi,

this concerns a machine running debian testing, with ibus-chewing 1.5.1-1 and

$ ibus version IBus 1.5.11

Note that there are no issues with ibus-anthy, hence this is probably a chewing problem.

Since very recently (just noticed today since I don't use my laptop too often; must have been a recent upgrade) choosing chewing from the ibus dialogue will result in

/usr/lib/ibus/ibus-engine-chewing -v 7 taking up about 100% CPU as well as memory, spitting out the following message, and eventually cause the entire system to freeze beyond recoverability.

ibus-chewing-Message: * focus_in(): statusFlags=1

ibus-chewing-Message: * focus_in(): statusFlags=1

Note that I use spectrwm as a wm, which does not have any status icons, up until now without any issues.

This problem now causes me to be unable to type Chinese. Interestingly I was typing earlier today, and the problem suddenly started to appear, without me doing any upgrades.

Any ideas?

PS: more detailed debugging info, but I failed to trigger the last IBUS-WARNINGs here (the system freezes before they appear):
