Hi,
K. Sethu brought this inconsistent behaviour to my attention [1].
im-switch(8):
------------------------------------------------------------------------
im-switch [-v][-z ll_CC] -s inputmethodname
...
-z ll_CC
Set up the input method for X run under ll_CC locale (ISO 639 /
ISO 3188). When setting for all locales, use all_ALL as the
quasi-locale value here.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
If im-switch is run with ll_CC set to all_ALL and run again with ll_CC
set to the real locale, e.g. en_AU, then the "inputmethodname" set for
en_AU will override the "inputmethodname" set for all_ALL.
One would expect the inverse behaviour where the "inputmethodname" set
for all_ALL would override the "inputmethodname" set for en_AU.
Fixing this problem is quite straightforward. Simply, search for the
quasi-locale, all_ALL, symlink before the real locale, en_AU:
