Required packages for using Input method
To use any Indic keyboard layout required packages to be installed are ibus, ibus-m17n, m17n-lib, m17n-db and m17n-contrib (alternatively scim and scim-m17n as well as uim and uim-m17n can be used instead of ibus). Keyboard layouts are stored in *.mim files which are installed from m17n-db and m17n-contrib packages.
To know more about iBus check the IBus page .
To know more about scim check the SCIM page .

But still some packages are using aspell dictionaries.The preference order for various dictionaries is defined currently in /usr/share/enchant/enchant.ordering file.
Fedora 11 onwards we have hyphen packages as part of hyphenation dictionary support for OpenOffice.org applications.
