Thank you so much Gunnar! just a minor comment. ibus-libpinyin can also be toggled to input traditional Chinese characters (繁體中文）from the default simplified Chinese （简体中文）。People who live in Taiwan may prefer to use "bopomofo", which, as I understand it, uses the same engine as ibus-libpinyin but a different keyboard layout.
With ibus-libpinyin development now seemingly in the pipeline, I am switching back from Fedora to Ubuntu! There are ways to improve ibus-libpinyin, will discuss them later. Perhaps a new thread?
