Installing KeyMagic on Ubuntu
Updated Oct 18, 2011 by thantthe...@gmail.com

deb package Released Click HERE. Try the following only if you cannot install this deb package

Introduction

About how to install KeyMagic on Ubuntu. You need to have iBus installed on your system.

Prerequisite

  • Run Terminal and enter the following commands: 
    • sudo apt-get install libibus-dev autopoint automake
sudo mkdir -p /usr/share/keymagic
mkdir -p ~/.keymagic

Installing

  • Download linux source archive from http://code.google.com/p/keymagic/downloads/list
  • Run Terminal and enter the following commands (assuming you have downloaded file into ~/Downloads folder): 
    • cd ~/Downloads/
tar -xvf ibus-keymagic-1.0.tar
cd ibus-keymagic
./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr
make
sudo make install

Installing Keyboard Layout

  • Download Keyboard Layout (example file: Download)
  • Copy downloaded file 
    • cp "~/Downloads/Zawgyi L - Unicode.km2" "~/.keymagic/Zawgyi L - Unicode.km2"

You can either install into '/usr/shared/keymagic/' for all users

Other available keyboard layouts

Activate Installed Keyboard

  • Restart iBus
    • Click on iBus icon at the panel
    • Click Restart
  • Click again on iBus icon and click Preferences
  • Choose 'Input Method' tab
  • Select 'English->Zawgyi L - Unicode (KeyMagic)' from the combo box
  • Click Add
  • Click Close

IMPORTANT TIPS:

If you run into error something like ./autogen.sh: 1: package_name: not found

Try sudo apt-get install package_name

For Example:

Says, you got an error ./autogen.sh: 1: autopoint: not found

Try sudo apt-get install autopoint

This works for most cases.

I got this error men.I am really a nusty guy @linux :P

>> checking how to hardcode library paths into programs... immediate checking for pkg-config... /usr/bin/pkg-config checking pkg-config is at least version 0.9.0... yes checking for IBUS... configure: error: Package requirements (

ibus-1.0 >= 1.2
) were not met:

No package 'ibus-1.0' found

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables IBUS_CFLAGS and IBUS_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config. See the pkg-config man page for more details. >> Tin Aung Linn

Hi Sir I sent to your mail!

Comment by si...@thwin.net, Jan 25, 2012

For anyone who use x86_64 ubuntu or debian. 1. sudo apt-get install libibus-1.0-dev autopoint automake git 2. git clone https://code.google.com/p/keymagic/ 3. cd keymagic/ibus 4. ./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr 5. make 6. sudo make install 7. cd ../LayoutScripts?/ 8. mkdir ~/.keymagic/ 9. cp ~/.keymagic/

(Note: if you got error when make. copy /keymagic/cross-platform/jkeymagickb/libkeymagic/keymagic.h to /keymagic/ibus/src/ ) Or Alternativly you can download this and extract it and cd to that extracted directory and start from setp 4.
