Prolems with fcitx5 installation - cannot open configtool
Hi, I'm trying to install fcitx5 on my yocto linux OS, but I'm encountering some issues. The fcitx5 daemon is started and I also see the icon of the keyboard on the top bar, but i cannot click, it doesn't open. When i try to open fcitx5 configtool from the UI, it doesn't work, so i tried to launch it from the command line, but it gives me the following error:
You are currently running fcitx with GUI, but fcitx-config-qt could not be found. Now it will open config directory. Cannot find a command to run
and nothing happens. I set the variables QT_IM_MODULE, GTK_IM_MODULE and XMODIFIERS to fcitx. I'm using XFCE and X11. In addition i will leave here the diagnose output:
