The recent update of unity packages introduced a bad regression for ibus users. I assume the fault lies with unity since ibus hasn't been updated for several weeks and my machine was fine until about two days ago around which time some unity updates rolled in.

I have a German keyboard layout (QWERTZ not QWERTY as in the US case). I use anthy and mozc for Japanese input. Since two days ago the default layout with the Japanese IME are a US layout throwing me off when blind-typing. To look into the matter, I opened ibus-setup and there are three Input methods listed there: English - English (US), Japanese - Anthy and Japanese -Mozc. German was conspicuously absent (and it was impossible to add in my default locale -> see bug XXX). I eventually managed to add a German layout to it but the next time I call ibus-setup the US layout is back as default. In other words, the explicit choice I'm trying to force doesn't stick.
