Disabling unreasonable input method

Annoyingly, SCIM or IBUS just seem to pop up after many new upgrades. It's a mess, doesn't work with emacs, takes over important key combinations like ctrl-space. It may be useful for people writing asian languages, but definitely not for a developer I wish it would not be forced on me!

Steps to disable:
just remove both scim and ibus packages from the system
