Unable to type any Traditional Chinese characters, even if you try to search the input methods name, they are in local language and users won't able to search but only looking by there eyes.

4. Finished installation and reboot

Expected result:

With proper, Bopomofo(fctix-chewing), input method installed, so user could start typing and searching.
