Motivation for this change

Fix a warning when running ibus-daemon:

(ibus-dconf:15691): dconf-WARNING **: 21:49:24.018: unable to open file '/etc/dconf/db/ibus': Failed to open file ?/etc/dconf/db/ibus?: open() failed: No such file or directory; expect degraded performance

cc @jtojnar @worldofpeace about dconf.

Things done
  • Tested that ibus still works and that the warning is gone in a vm
  • ran the gnome and gnome-xorg tests to ensure the dconf.profiles options has not regressed
  • Tested using sandboxing (nix.useSandbox on NixOS, or option sandbox in nix.conf on non-NixOS linux)
  • Built on platform(s)
    • NixOS
    • macOS
    • other Linux distributions
  • Tested via one or more NixOS test(s) if existing and applicable for the change (look inside nixos/tests)
  • Tested compilation of all pkgs that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nixpkgs-review --run "nixpkgs-review wip"
  • Tested execution of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • Determined the impact on package closure size (by running nix path-info -S before and after)
  • Ensured that relevant documentation is up to date
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.

Sorry, something went wrong.

Oh, right. I did not notice we were previously replacing the file with a blank script.

Can confirm this works to copy the default value from GSettings schemas to the dconf database. Though I do not understand why would they do it, unless they do not use GSettings and access dconf database directly.

The ibus aspect of this looks okay to me, but I don't know enough about the dconf aspect to say.

The ibus test does not pass, but it didn't pass before either:
before

# Start of ibus tests
# MESSAGE: Failed to generate IBusConfig: Configuration daemon is not running.
Bail out! ERROR:ibus-config.c:23:finish_create_config_async_success: assertion failed: (IBUS_IS_CONFIG (config))
FAIL: ibus/ibus-config.test (Child process killed by signal 6)

After:

# Start of ibus tests
ok 1 /ibus/create-config-async
Bail out! IBUS-FATAL-WARNING: org.freedesktop.IBus.Config.GetValue: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Failed: Config value [test:v1] does not exist.
FAIL: ibus/ibus-config.test (Child process killed by signal 5)

which looks better but not good enough yet...

I fixed the test by running ibus-daemon inside the session via systemd instead of via ssh. It's slightly mysterious to me though.

It seems fine to me, and it works ✨

I noticed an issue with the tests that introduced an eval issue #85970 (comment). Reverted for now.
