(Get the code!)
After messing around with it some more I was able to get it partially working. No icon in the tray and no candidate list is displayed but it will switch to Japanese with my shortcut key.
These are the steps I took to get it here
Purged my system of all Japanese system language, ibus and anthy packages to ensure I did not have a conflict.
Restarted the system
In the "System Languages" module I select Japanese however the only component I can select is "Translations", "Input methods" is grayed out.
Restarted the system
In the package manager I install "ibus-anthy" and its dependents(this included ibus-common).
Start the "Keyboard Input Method"(ibus-setup) config utility. It ask to start up the ibus deamon, I said OK. Then I got a message
"IBus has been started! If you can not use IBus, please run System -> Administration -> Language Support and set the "Keyboard Input Method" to "ibus", then log out and back in again."
I set the keyboard method for English system language to ibus and set my ibus preferences are set the way I want.
Restarted the system
やった！！ I can switch with my shortcut key.
The lack of a system tray icon and candidate list is still a bug that needs to be fixed.
