In Linux Lite 2.2 64 bit iBus has weird extra layouts that seem unnecessary

[vaikus84]

Hello

The version of Linux Lite is 2.2 64 bit.

First some information on how I use iBus on my system.

I use an Estonian keyboard layout.
iBus seams to insist on leaving English permanently there although I don't use it as my layout of choice.

So it kind of has quadrupled the English part after I added the Estonian layout to it (and changed to Estonian as the default in iBus).

Any suggestions on how to remove those unnecessary English layouts?

Thank you in advance,

Do I have to set up the forum somehow to see those extra possibilities that are shown in the tutorial? Because on some posts I saw those tools and on most posts I did not see those tools.

No.

I disabled Firefox addons Cookie Self-Destruct and AddBlock Plus for the forum. Still no improvements even on changing my own post.

Let's see if this helps.
Right click on the icon and then select 'Preferences'
When a dialog opens, click on 'Input Method' tab and enable 'Customize active input methods'
Add your language and remove the English.
I've noticed that English layout returns, even though it is removed, when I right-click on the icon and then select 'Restart'.

Has this got anything to do with the fact that when you install LL regardless of what language/keyboard you set when you install when you boot into the installed OS you end up with US as the default language/keyboard?

This doesn't happen with other Ubuntu derivatives using the same installer.

Yes I removed English and restarted iBus with right click and "Restart". At first it left only Estonian as a Layout. After rebooting the machine English showed up as a layout again. When I go to the iBus preferences again there is no English layout visible there. So the issue here must be somewhere deeper in the system.

I think that localepurge would help on your side . just update & install localepurge .

In Terminal ;

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install localepurge

It might give you a hand here .

Also check settings in the Menu , Settings Manager .
