Bug Description
trusty SRU request
==================
[Impact]
scim-m17n is broken in trusty. The IM engine is simply not available to scim, since the location of the m17n.so file is wrong.
[Test Case]
* Install scim and scim-m17n.
* Open scim-setup, and find that the input methods provided by scim-m17n are not available.
* Install the rebuilt scim-m17n package and re-login.
* The scim-m17n IMs are now available from scim-setup.
[Regression Potential]
None. This is a broken -> working case.
[Original description]
After installing the scim-m17n software, the languages are not available for use in scim. Even after activating scim, only English is available. All the Asian and other non-European languages which become availalbe through m17n, are remain unlisted. Of note, in a comment on this site [http://
It should be added that for many writers of Asian languages, this scim-m17n is critically important to their work. I am one of those; for many years I have been typing using this system, and there is no viable alternative. The Ibus system does not provide for proper formatting of what is typed. So it is vitally important that this scim-m17n be made to work in 14.04. - Swarup

I am facing the same problem. After installing ubuntu 14.04, scim global setup lists no other languages other than English, in spite of installing Bengali in language settings. In ubuntu 12.04, this problem was not there.
How can this be fixed?
