Title:
ibus does not install itself as an option for the all_ALL quasi-locale
Status in “im-config” package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
Binary package hint: ibus
Upon installation, ibus installs itself as a choice for several
locales (xinput-lang_LANG alternatives), including ja_JP and ko_KR.
This allows for use of the im-switch tool to change what input method
to use for that locale.
It does not install itself as an option for the all_ALL quasi-locale,
or more specifically, the xinput-all_ALL alternative. This makes it
impossible to use im-switch to set my system-wide default to ibus. I
run Kubuntu 10.04 with an English language setting and a Swedish
locale. This behavior is present in Karmic as well.
$ sudo im-switch -c
No system wide default defined just for locale en_US .
Use "all_ALL" quasi-locale and set IM.
System wide default for all_ALL locale is marked with [+].
There are 7 choices for the alternative xinput-all_ALL (providing
/etc/X11/xinit/xinput.d/all_ALL).

As workarounds go, it is possible to modify the alternative
configuration file (/var/lib/dpkg/alternatives/xinput-all_ALL) to
include ibus, or to manually repoint the symlink at /etc/alternatives
/xinput-all_ALL. I can also overwrite /etc/X11/xinit/xinput.d/default
with the contents of the ibus file in the same directory.
Looking at the source, all_ALL is commented out at
debian/ibus.postinst:12. Excerpt;
case "$1" in
configure)
#ua_inst all_ALL ibus 0
ua_inst ja_JP ibus 60
ua_inst ko_KR ibus 60
[...]
Unsure of the rationale of why it would be disabled that way. Both UIM
and SCIM install themselves as choices to all_ALL, so installation of
those methods is very easy.
