Description of problem: When a new user/language is selected during log-in from the GDM, ibus does not load all the keymaps that are provided by the m17n package (which is part of language-support) for the language. Only one keymap from the set is loaded and marked as the default for use. The remaining keymaps for the language need to be manually searched and added by the user. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): default ibus versions in F13, F14 How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create a new user 2. From the GDM screen, select Bengali India or Marathi and log in using the new user account 3. Open gedit and enable ibus by pressing the toggle trigger (ctrl+space) 4. Right-click on the ibus icon on the panel, and select the menu item for 'Preferences' 5. Select the tab for 'Input Method'. Actual results: Only One keymap would be added and ready for use e.g. http://runab.fedorapeople.org/assorted-bugs/ibus-default-bn.png http://runab.fedorapeople.org/assorted-bugs/ibus-default-mr.png Expected results: All the keymaps included in the m17n package that is installed for language-support, ought to be loaded. Only one of them would be marked as default and the others can be moved up/down as per the user's discretion. Additional info: 1. In the 'Input Method' tab (as described in step 5), click on the dropdown menu and scroll down to the name of the language. All the keymaps available for that language would be displayed. e.g. http://runab.fedorapeople.org/assorted-bugs/ibus-keymap-bn.png http://runab.fedorapeople.org/assorted-bugs/ibus-keymap-mr.png 2. This bug exists for Fedora 13 as well
Currently ibus-m17n/src/m17nutil.c decides the engine's rank. Talking off line, they wish the current rank == 1 engines are the default and others also could be preloaded. However I think rank == 0 is ok for Japanese but it's ok to modify the all Indic engines.

Ok, I created a patch to make current rank == 1 engines to rank == 2 and other Indic engines (rank == 0) to rank == 1. Koji scratch build: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=2529578 I confirmed that it works as expected, but further testing would be appreciated.
