preface
- I also want to use the familiar Sogou input method under linux. Therefore, I checked various tutorials on the Internet and found that many of them failed. When I want to give up, the following link helped me complete this task:
- Official tutorial: Ubuntu Sogou input method installation guide
- Detailed steps for installing Sogou input method in Ubuntu 20.04
- Ubuntu 20.04 lts installation Sogou input method
Install according to the official tutorial
01. Install fcitx with the command sudo apt get install fcitx. Restart the system after installation, and then go in to find the fcitx option!
-
- **Why do you do this** As shown in the figure below, Ubuntu 20 The default keyboard input method system is IBus, while the system required for Sogou Pinyin is fcitx
- **Why do you do this** As shown in the figure below, Ubuntu 20 The default keyboard input method system is IBus, while the system required for Sogou Pinyin is fcitx
02. Use the command sudo apt get install fcitx and restart to see fcitx. Then switch to fcitx and restart.
03. After restarting, you will find that there is an additional keypad here, which is the entry of all input methods in the control system:
After opening the configuration input method, you will find that it looks like this, but we haven't installed Sogou input method yet!
04. Download the latest version of the installation package on the official website and use the command to install sudo dpkg -i sogoupinyin_2.4.0.3469_amd64.deb, followed by the version number you downloaded online!
This command will probably report an error, with the following effects:
