Installing ibus-devel fixes this.

It implements XIM protocol, and has GTK+ and Qt input method modules.

Must you recompile after installing ibus-devel? Or is this a run-time only problem? Have you always been running FC 18 and this just started happening because of a changeset in the repository?

Are you doing anything special when compiling? I am running fc14 and though there is an ibus-devel, it isn't installed. Here are the non-header-file contents for that package.

/usr/lib64/libibus.so
/usr/lib64/pkgconfig/ibus-1.0.pc
/usr/share/gir-1.0/IBus-1.0.gir
/usr/share/vala/vapi/ibus-1.0.vapi

I would guess it is libibus.so that is needed, but I don't see any libibus.so as part of the octave script. Maybe Qt needs a function inside that library. If so, perhaps FC should be making the ibus-devel package a dependency for the Qt Toolkit package.
