I use fcitx-mozc for typing Japanese and I would like to use it in emacs over the inbuilt as it is more powerful.

I tried using mozc-mode (mozc.el) but that says there's "communication error with the helper process". I tried using fcitx.el and 

(fcitx-aggressive-setup)
(setq fcitx-use-dbus t)

to my .emacs file and ran fcitx-aggressive-setup but neither work.

  • what's your operating system? how did you install mozc and mosc.el? – Felipe Lema Jul 11 '18 at 16:22
  • 4.17.4-1-MANJARO M-x list-packages (i.e. elpa/melpa) – Jack Jul 11 '18 at 23:58
  • Also, fcitx-mozc from arch repo (i.e. pacman) – Jack Jul 12 '18 at 03:54
  • mozc.el states that it needs the `mozc_emacs_helper` binary. This file cannot be found in the arch repo package `fcitx-mozc`'s list of files. It looks like it is needed and it wasn't installed by pacman or mozc.el's {,m}elpa installation and that you'll have to find a way to install it yourself. Also, do mind that whatever binary you install it has to match {,m}elpa's version, so you might want to use `straight.el` for package management instead. – Felipe Lema Jul 13 '18 at 14:09
