Yes, me, as mentioned above.
Ok, do this, which is also described on my page under some other
distributions.
Quit X.
Go into ~/.config/fcitx.
Edit profile, looking for pinyan:False. Change that False to True and
startx again. It should then show as available.
I think, when I decided to use fcitx on CentOS-7, I already knew about this
method so never even looked for configtool.

Once you get it running, you can see. Possibly not.
