Arch Linux

Description: Can't select input methods in ibus-setup if en_US.utf-8 locale isn't defined. The application then display bogus window. The following lines are displayed in terminal:


File "/usr/share/ibus/setup/main.py", line 322, in __button_engine_add_cb
dialog.set_engines(self.__engines)
File "/usr/share/ibus/setup/enginedialog.py", line 327, in set_engines
locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL, 'en_US.UTF-8')
File "/usr/lib/python3.4/locale.py", line 592, in setlocale
return _setlocale(category, locale)
locale.Error: unsupported locale setting

This is a blocking issue for every non en_US.utf-8 user that want to use asian languages and don't have the knowledge to debug/create locale.

Additional info:
* package version(s) ibus-1.5.8-1 + (not sure that's needed) at least one ibus-<input-method> package
* config and/or log files etc.


Steps to reproduce:

* Install basic archlinux with a local different from en_US.UTF-8 (I installed it with fr_FR.UTF-8).
* pacman -S ibus ibus-libpinyin
* As user : ibus-setup, confirm that you want to launch ibus, go to Input Method tab (Méthode d'entrée in french, etc...),
* Click sur Add (ajouter in french, etc...), and the list will not display as, when en_US.UTF-8 is defined. The python error message described at the top of this bug report will be displayed if launched from a shell.
