Hi Tomas,
I had the other variables set, but not GUIX_GTK4_PATH. I tried
export GUIX_GTK4_PATH=/run/current-system/profile/lib/gtk-4.0/
This is an improvement, because now dino (my GTK4 test application)
accepts characters selected with ibus-libpinyin. It's not really
usable, though, because the selection window is invisible (same on all
other applications in Sway) and selected characters are inserted twice.

The mechanism has changed. For wayland there are different versions of
a protocol for input methods. Currently, ibus only implements version
1, so this could be why it's not working properly in Sway.
I see that there's ongoing work on supporting version 2 of the wayland
protocol for input methods:
https://github.com/fujiwarat/ibus/tree/wayland-v2/
I'll try building that.
