[Bug 690546] [NEW] ibus-m17n package is not selected even enabling language support for other languages

Binary package hint: ibus

When I tried to  enable language support for some indic languages
(malayalam, sanskrit, tamil etc), by selecting Admin->Language Support
and added these languages, the system prompted and installed many
packages. This  however does not install ibus-m17n package which is
necessary to enable writing support using ibus. There is no option to
enable this other than manually installing the said package. This is
clearly a bug as users  are not expected to know which package they need
to enable writing support.
