Bug#988540: im-config: breaks the keyboard configuration
Package: im-config
Version: 0.46-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
The installation of im-config breaks the keyboard configuration:
accented characters no longer work, etc.
Note: This package is automatically installed via dependencies
(ibus, needed by Zoom).
-- Package-specific info:
=== command path ==
im-config is /usr/bin/im-config

im-config -l => ibus xim
