1. I am still on Ubuntu 18.04.6. I know it sounds strange, but in the
past 5-6 years I was so busy, that I was upgrading only the components I
actually actively use in my research work, namely Wolfram Mathematica,
python (with all scientific modules) etc. But yes, at some point I will
need to switch. I never "upgrade", but always install from scratch and
then spend several days tweaking the system to my liking. The reason I
didn't upgrade to Ubuntu 20 is that I really disliked the idea of using
snap. I am used to having a full control over every single instruction
my CPUs are executing and snap somewhat distances the user of the system
from what is happening inside, imo.

2. The im-config package could not be removed without removing gnome-
control-center, which would be extremely inconvenient. So, no, it is
still installed. I would gladly remove it, but because of this
dependency I had to keep it.

Title:
  im-config configuration ignored with gdm3

Status in gdm3 package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in im-config package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  After having logged in via gdm3, the IM related environment variables
  are always set like this:

  $ env | grep -E '_IM|XMOD'
  QT_IM_MODULE=ibus
  XMODIFIERS=@im=ibus

  Changing ~/.xinputrc to e.g. xim makes no difference, so gdm3 prevents
  all other IM frameworks but IBus from working.

  This problem seems to be similar to bug #1594681 (which was fixed).
