But adding 'GUIX_GTK3_IM_MODULE_FILE' to the 'native-search-paths' of 'gtk+' is not good enough or won't solve this issue as we usually don't install 'gtk+' into the profile. I'd like to find another way set them, could be add some code to '(guix profiles)' with the 'gtk-im-modules' profile hook. Need more thinking... In the meantime, we have to set those environment variables manually..
