In stumpwm
not able to get Hindi "Input Method"  to add in the listing of available
input methods
with

  ibus-setup
command

and started the daemon with

ibus-daemon -r -d  -v

or

ibus-daemon -d -r --xim

While in gnome magically "Hindi" many other more languages are languages
are present
in available input methods.

while

ibus list-engine --name-only
or
ibus list-engine

output in both stumpwm and gnome
not have Hindi listed in it.

these recommended environment variables

  GTK_IM_MODULE=ibus
  XMODIFIERS=@im=ibus
  QT_IM_MODULE=ibus
  export GTK_IM_MODULE
  export XMODIFIERS
  export QT_IM_MODULE

was set

also checked with

  GTK_IM_MODULE=xim

But the same result.

I had install these packages

                                   "xinput"
                                   "ibus"
                                   "m17n-lib"
                                   "m17n-db"
