Hi, sorry for being late to reply I made time for investigation.

Why do we try im-chooser (https://pagure.io/im-chooser/)?

As far as I remember, one of the reasons is that im-chooser/im-settings does not provide feature to pick an IMF according to the current local every time. It seems that it is working on Plasma Wayland session under Fedora 28 (but I don't know why). Also it provides extra features such as xim proxy, to switch IMF dynamically.

I did some research https://wiki.gnome.org/Initiatives/Wayland/SessionStart environment variable can be set with systemd.

Thanks, interesting. I confirmed it works on Leap 15.0 even though no standard directories are provided by our systemd package. It seems that there are several limitations. The cause is that environment variables are set for each user session not for each desktop session. This means that - Users cannot change variables (e.g, GTK_IM_MODULE) depending on the kind of desktop environment (by using XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP). - Users cannot use different IMF for each desktop session. - Users need to exit all the sessions (applications) on their host to apply changes of those environment variables (need restart their systemd user session) + d-bus API to apply the change is also available I need to learn about systemd user session more. BTW: We have only 12 days to submit proposal of speech at openSUSE.Asia 2018 https://events.opensuse.org/conference/summitasia18 Thanks, Fuminobu TAKEYAMA On 15/05/2018 12:22, Marguerite Su wrote:

I wonder if we can set the im variable like this?

And can we write a bridge (inputmethodd) like this:

export QT_IM_MODULE=inputmethodd

and inputmethodd is the application actually calls fcitx, ibus based on user selection, locale, system presets....

So we can just pass inputmethodd to X11 or wayland, and do the im related work in inputmethodd itself.
