@Gunnar 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. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to im-config in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1720250 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.
