That was odd. But then this is an im-config bug. The other bugs you
mentioned seem to be unrelated to this one, and im-config consists of
architecture independent shell code.

Can you please open a terminal window, run the commands below, and show
in a comment here what they output:

locale

locale -a

** Summary changed:

- language selector ignores  input methods other than xim and none in my current locale
+ im-config ignores  input methods other than xim in my current locale

** Package changed: language-selector (Ubuntu) => im-config (Ubuntu)

Title:
  im-config ignores  input methods other than xim in my current locale

Status in im-config package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I use Ubuntu 16.04.6 LTS. I can not reach other input methods such as
  ibus, fcitx in my current locale which is LANGUAGE=tr_TR.UTF-8. It's
  not listed in unity-control-center>Language Support>Keyboard Input
  Method System. If I launch unity-control-center from terminal which is
  using different locale "LANGUAGE=en_US.utf8 unity-control-center" then
  there is no problem, all of the installed input methods are in the
  list.

  I also tested "python3 /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/LanguageSelector/ImConfig.py"
  it also ignores input methods other than xim and none.
  If I export "LANGUAGE=en_US.utf8" it lists all the other input methods.
