No. I said that you can do that if you are on an Ubuntu version > 20.04. Given the version you actually are on, instead I would suggest that you reinstall im-config:

sudo apt-get install --reinstall im-config

That's because the error message indicates that the installation of im-config is not complete. Maybe you tried to partly uninstall it.

"E: Script for none not found at run_im."

Well, "script for none" should be there:

$ ls -1 /usr/share/im-config/data | grep none
78_none.conf
78_none.rc

and a reinstall ought to restore those files.

Or you can keep your return at the top of the file. That won't hurt if you don't use any input method.

That's true, and the reason is that language-selector-gnome depends on im-config. I should probably relax that to a recommends.

Not strange at all, actually, since you are on bionic.
