To set up a proper environment on Debian for an Input Method Framework like ibus, "im-config" is needed of course but that is not everything. Some extra configurations might be necessary too based on the DE you are using. You are recommended to uninstall other input methods like fcitx and remove any customized instructions about environment variable exporting inside ~/.bashrc, ~/.profile, ~/.xprofile etc in advance if there's any, to prevent any unexpected interference coming from third party configurations. You are recommended to set your locale to zh_CN.UTF-8 for a complete (Simplified) Chinese environment. You need to install a complete set of ibus. As previously said in the mail according to the output of im-config, extra packages like ibus-qt4, ibus-gtk, ibus-gtk3 and many more packages should be installed in advance. I also noticed that you did not install the "ibus" package, which should be fixed. You also need to install at least one concrete input method for Chinese, like ibus-pinyin(DEPRECATED AND NOT RECOMMENDED), ibus-libpinyin or ibus-rime. Now that you are using GNOME Shell, please reboot the system after previous installation and check GNOME Control Center for the settings for locale and languages. You must select the IM source from the list. For example, select "汉 语 (Intellegent Pinyin)" if you installed ibus-libpinyin. Then rerun im-config and select ibus. Read all instructions *again* and install any missing packages. Reboot again and you should notice an icon on the top-right corner for IM. Use super+space to switch between different IMs. I tested this procedure on my laptop running Debian Testing. You are encouraged to test by yourself and read articles about contemporary setup of ibus on new GNOME Shell, say GNOME 3.24 or later, which is pretty different from earlier version of GNOME Shell. There are other noteworthy articles about IBus around the Internet, like this one on Arch Wiki ( https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/IBus ). Arch Linux is slightly different from Debian but most of the contents should be applicable. Regards, Boyuan Yang
