Agree, it seems it's the feasible option currently. But we need to add some new packages, task-<lang>-gnome-desktop, for languages which prefer non-ibus. Which are: 1. task-amharic-gnome-desktop, *maybe NEW*, I didn't find amharic for ibus? 2. task-chinese-s-gnome-desktop, *NEW*, probably ibus-libpinyin 3. task-chinese-t-gnome-desktop, *NEW*, probably ibus-chewing 4. task-kannada-gnome-desktop, *NEW*, probably ibus-m17n 5. task-malayalam-gnome-desktop, *maybe NEW*, I didn't find malayalam for ibus? 6. task-telugu-gnome-desktop, already has, probably ibus-m17n 7. task-japanese-gnome-desktop, already has, patch in #983653 @Release Team, could you look at this? It's OK for these new packages. -- Shengjing Zhu
