Description Parag Nemade 2009-05-20 07:33:04 UTC
Description of problem:
iBus should be enabled by default for en-US. However, there has to be an option to enable it by default. iBus should be installed by default irrespective of package selection during Anaconda installation, since it's really important for non-english users, just like fonts.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
ibus-1.1.0.20090508-3.fc11.x86_64

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. install F11 in English locale
2. try to use iBus using ctrl+space
3.
  
Actual results:
no iBus installed with English locale

Expected results:
should install iBus with English locale.

I think it is controlled by imchooser or imsetting.

Comment 2 Akira TAGOH 2009-05-25 08:30:27 UTC
What's the justification to enable IM by default for even English locale? I'm afraid the result of the test event still looks to me like a rare case though. and how about the footprint?

This is hard to decide to go in our team. you better get more agreements from community.

Comment 3 Parag Nemade 2009-05-25 08:37:24 UTC
As this is request from Ankit, I would like to hear from Ankit on comment #2.

Yeah, that's definitely better. I never intended to file a bug initially when I put my suggestion in the iBus test page.

Tagoh, what would be the best place to discuss this?

fedora-desktop-list?
fedora-devel-list?
fedora-i18n-list?
fedora-trans-list?


Thanks!
Ankit

devel would be better place but someone in other lists may be interested. so Cc'ing would be good IMHO.
