Yes, this was an intentional change, to bring the packaging more in line with Debian. If language-selector requires im-switch in order to work, then language-selector should have the dependency on im-switch, not ibus. ibus is agnostic with respect to the different IM configuration systems.
Also, Hung says he's running 11.10 but this change in ibus did not take effect until precise, so has nothing to do with the issue described here. Instead, the problem appears to be a lubuntu-specific issue where lubuntu is pulling im-config into its default install instead of im- switch. ** Changed in: ibus (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/908762 Title: "Keyboard input method system" drop-down list is emtpy (ibus was installed) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ibus/+bug/908762/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
