If you for instance select zh_CN as language and "Try Ubuntu", you would expect to enter a session with the "Intelligent Pinyin" method included among the available input sources. The proposed fix should ensure that an IBus method is always available in "live sessions" in languages which are prepared for it. [Test Case] 1. Install ibus-libpinyin and make sure that "Intelligent Pinyin" is not included among your available input sources. 2. Generate the Chinese locale: sudo locale-gen zh_CN.UTF-8 3. Add to ~/.profile this line: export LC_CTYPE=zh_CN.UTF-8 4. Remove the gnome-settings-daemon stamp file: rm ~/.local/share/gnome-settings-daemon/input-sources-converted 5. Log out and log in again. => Find that the "Intelligent Pinyin" method was not added (since the sources already in the list prevented it from being added). 6. Install gnome-settings-daemon from bionic-proposed. 7. Repeat step 4 and 5. => Find that the "Intelligent Pinyin" method was added. [Regression Potential] The proposed upload includes a small change which specifically addresses the issue as described above. I find that the risk for adverse side effects is low. [Original description] Ubuntu 18.10 iso (2018.8.7), select Simplified Chinese for booting, can't input Chinese character. From Settings -> Regions and Languages, selected Intelligent Pinyin, also could not input Chinese. --- 18.10 镜像（2018.8.7）选择简体中文开机，无法输入中文。由 Settings -> Regions and Languages，选择 智能拼音，也无法输入中文。 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/1786344/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
