I use fcitx5 for non-english typing. I’ve recently been trying to configure typing in Chinese but can’t get it to work. I’ve installed fcitx5-chinese-addons and manjaro-asian-input-support-fcitx5, restarted fcitx5, rebooted my computer, but the input method still doesn’t work. The only options available as input methods are “Keyboard - Chinese - Hanyu Pinyin Letters (with AltGr dead keys)” and “Keyboard - Chinese”, and neither of them does anything. Hitting the tab key doesn’t do anything, no candidates pop up like with the Anthy ime for Japanese. I already have the environment variables for fcitx5 configured in /etc/environment, and I’ve looked at this post and this post. Is there anything else I’m missing somewhere?
