Created attachment 1480461 [details] gnome-control-center-input-method-add-no-languages-listed.png I installed Fedora-Workstation-netinst-x86_64-29-20180902.n.0.iso in qemu in Japanese with all defaults accepted except adding an English keyboard layout in Anaconda. When Gnome first started, I did choose the Japanese input method ibus-kkc in gnome-initial-setup. Then, after gnome-initial-setup was finished, I opened the gnome-control-center to add more input methods. See screenshot gnome-control-center-input-method-add-no-languages-listed.png. I click on the three dots which opens a search entry field at the bottom and I type "inscript" into that search entry. Nothing is listed except the the entry その他 (which means "other" in Japanese) at the top. But this means that my search string "inscript" matched something, if I type something like "inscriptx" which has no matches, the "その他" ("other") line disappears. Now, while "inscript" is in the search entry, Ι click on その他 （"other") and get a list of all the inscript input methods. See screenshot gnome-control-center-input-method-add-all-inscript-methods-shown-under-other.png These inscript input methods are all for various Indian languages, the language is even shown at the beginning of each line (in Japanese translation). So these should not be listed under その他 ("other") but under the respective language. "inscript" is just an example, *all* input methods for any language are now shown under other.

Probably I think this is a bug in gnome-desktop3.
Since this is a configure issue, I'd suggest to fix gnome-desktop3.spec %build %configure --enable-installed-tests -make %{?_smp_mflags} +make %{?_smp_mflags} DATADIRNAME=share
I believe this should be fixed in gnome-desktop 3.30.0 that's in updates-testing.
Discussed at 2018-09-10 freeze exception review meeting: https://meetbot-raw.fedoraproject.org/fedora-blocker-review/2018-09-10/f29-blocker-review.2018-09-10-16.01.html . Rejected as a freeze exception issue as no clear grounds for FE status were provided in the bug. (I can see why this might make sense as an FE, but I wasn't present when it was discussed). Note that the overall 'put GNOME 3.30 in Beta' FE proposal was accepted, so if 3.30.0 fixes this as Kalev says, the fix will wind up in Beta anyway. Mike, can you test that? Thanks!
