Bug description:
Nomination of im-switch for Precise and Quantal SRUs
====================================================
[Impact]
In raring, we are replacing im-switch with im-config, but when im-switch
isn't purged but only removed, scripts in /etc/X11/Xsession.d/ will still try
to set related variables, so that im-config cannot work correctly.
[Test Case]
Steps to reproduce:
* Make sure you have an updated Precise or Quantal.
* Select "ibus" from Language Support.
* Remove im-switch without purging.
* Log out and log in again.
* Run "env | grep IM" from a terminal window and find that im related
environment variables were set when they shouldn't.
[Regression Potential]
None.
Remaining from original description
===================================
Fixing im-switch in Precise and Quantal is part of the solution to
this problem, something else must be done for those who haven't got
the chance to upgrade to the fixed version.
