It doesn't make sense to let user get all of those table in m17n-db,
like, I'm Simplified Chinese user, when I install m17n, I just want
those relate to Simplified Chinese.
In scim-table, the maintainer did in this way, it has been splited into
scim-tables-additional - miscellaneous input method data tables for SCIM
platform
scim-tables-ja - Japanese input method data tables for SCIM platform
scim-tables-ko - Korean input method data tables for SCIM platform

Hi Zhengpeng,
Instead of uninstalling the m17n MIM layouts that you do not want
visible by default to the user, have you considered using the "rank"
attribute?
If you have a look at the files in:
/usr/share/ibus/component/*.xml
You'll notice the use of the "rank" attribute. e.g. <rank>98</rank>
My understanding is that when a user chooses a particular locale, the
IMs that will be selected by default are the ones with a "rank" greater
than 0. So if you have a preference for an IBus IM over m17n IM, then
set the rank of that particular m17n IM to 0.
At the moment, the m17n IM ranks are defined in this C file:
https://github.com/ibus/ibus-m17n/blob/master/src/m17nutil.c
However, I've opened a Bug for the m17n IM ranks to be defined in a text
file so that it can be easily modified.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=658336
Hopefully, this is a viable solution to the problem you described.
cya,
