Probably it's good to fix this. But which locale did you run ibus-setup on?

I can not reproduce your problem even though LANG is removed.

% env LANG= ibus-setup

I have my F18 latest updated. ibus-setup gives a gui menu, leaving the
following messages in terminal:

$ ibus-setup

(main.py:7180): IBUS-WARNING **: org.freedesktop.IBus.Config.GetValue:
GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Failed: Config value
[general:load_xkb_layouts] does not exist.

GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Failed: Config value
[general/xkblayoutconfig:group_list] does not exist.

I don't really see how changing the settings of menu will let me use other
input language (I select Chinese-intelligent pinyin as input method). Shortcut
key doesn't work. My default locale is US english, if that is what you are
asking.

As for input method selector from applications menu, choosing "Use IBus
(recommended)" now gives the following message:

GDBus.Error:org.gtk.GDBus.UnmappedGError.Quark._imsettings_2derror_2dquark.Code5:
Current desktop isn't targeted by Input Method.

It's another problem.
As you see, this bug is updated and ibus-1.4.99.20121006-2.fc18 is available
now and I think the [general:load_xkb_layouts] issue is fixed.

But I'm asking the original bug instead:

Which locale did you use to see this problem?
I guess you set a wrong locale or an anaconda bug.

If you use gnome-shell instead of metacity + gnome-panel, you need to run
'gnome-control-center region' instead of ibus-setup because ibus is integrated
into GNOME3.
ibus-setup needs to be called for non-GNOME desktops or metacity + gnome-panel.

I don't see the error but I guess you use gnome-shell.

BTW, to check the current locale, 'locale' command is good.

I believe this problem is fixed after the latest update. The crash never occur
anymore.

Unless I'm very wrong, I thought the purpose of having an icon in the apps menu
is to free me from the burden of remembering every command and of typing into
the terminal just to start an application?

Or maybe I have used the wrong application here, because going to the menus and
click "input method selector" is just a natural destination if I want to switch
keyboard language. Btw after your reminder I can now set another keyboard
language in gnome-control-center->Region and Language, but honestly this is a
sucky experience. Hope this will be fixed in future.

I'm asking the result of the 'locale' command to know the root cause and why
this problem could be happend.
The purpose does not mean to fix ibus itself, I think.

OK, thanks.
AFAIK, it's the anaconda's bug 858591.
The installer system should provide en_US.utf8.

But this fix will launch ibus-setup with the wrong locale.
